There are rare occasions when electricity chooses to remain a distant friend. There is no other way to account for my utter ignorance or my ‘in the dark’ status as it relates to this machine which is known affectionately as Mighty Mouse.
The machine was born and raised as a Honda CRX but somewhere along its trek to maturity, its owner decided to hurl the tiny creature into a ring in which voracious sharks are permanent residents. Time attack is a one lap shootout which takes no prisoners. Do you want to see an all out horsepower war? Time attack is the place to be!
Do you still judge machines based on the amount of power they pack? Do you still subscribe to the bigger is better doctrine (displacement)? Apparently no one conveyed the status quo to the wizards behind this machine.
It has transformed immensely over time and in the process, the clock has suffered from its relentless abuse. They call the machine Mighty Mouse. I beg to differ. This machine, which unfortunately is on the verge of retirement, is truly a Monster Mouse!
Did you notice anything peculiar?
Honda! Real machine!
