Black-Tooth
Tony Natoli
He has autocrossed it Mike...
Than took me for a ride in the hills and I was the one pleading for mercy!
On a side note... sometime in the early millennium... I had two '79 X1/9's and the White one was a ROCKET for some reason or another. I asked if he would come over and drive White Fang to Anaheim and I would drive Black Tooth. We did, he did, had a great time with some folks visiting from Oregon... and several "Test Drove" White Fang around the block.
My son said it was really getting late so he was gonna just drive White Fang home and then make arrangements to swap cars again in a day or so.
TWO WEEKS LATER I called to ask when I was getting my car back and he said he was having TOO MUCH FUN with White Fang.
Alas, a few days later he called on his cell phone to say the LF wheel had come off at 70 mph, jammed under the fender tearing half of the sheet metal off... but he was still able to steer it over to the right and out of traffic. I called AAA to tow the car home... bolted on the wheel, tore off the rest of the fender, and drove it 25 miles home.
More on the fender replacement another time... but what really bothered me was that I was the last one to bolt that wheel on the car. We and he musta driven it several hundred miles since then. What a life!
