I am reminded of a quote I read about (I think) the Porsche 935, a
fearsomely powerful 911-based race car in the late 1970s. It beat a lot of
pure, tub-chassised, mid-engine race cars. I don't remember who said this,
maybe it was Brian Redman, the Porsche racer. He said "you can't make a pig
into a thoroughbred, but you can make one hell of a fast pig."
