[doc] Re: Max Power

["jamesrguk" <James_rg@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Well I have been fortunate enough to drive a Modena 360 Ferrari and 
500SL merc all be it for a very short distance lol.

But I think people mod cars just want to be individual and stand out 
from the crowd. I should imagine it's also great fun and a good way 
of learning about engineering and styling. 

That's why I make slight alterations to my DeLorean, nothing 
permenant, but just enough for people to think hmmmm that's a bit 
different.

Each to their own
