  Maybe Lambos are trucks?....They race like trucks.  There were a few that
showed at PIR for a Speed World Challenge race a couple of years back..
Their lap times were the same as a 911s....an old 911.  Not the most sporty
of sports cars....but wicked fast in  a straight line, I guess...I think
they finished last...behind some Mazda sedans, even.
   The most sporty thing about a Vanagon?  You could camp in one at the
racetrack and watch the races.
