Yes, he could drive. His was a 3.23 M6 car.
The only time I had my Spirit to the track was in '93. It was still bone stock and ran a 14.4@100. Car was a lot of fun but expensive to fix since Lotus ended up being GM and ChryCo got screwed over. My head cracked(pretty common) at 18K miles and it sat at the Dodge dealer for almost 6 months because nobody in the country had a head. Finally got one and the bill was almost $6K, $4K was just the bare head! Thankfully it was all covered under warranty.
At 80K, the head lifted and needed work. I had cranked up the boost and I guess 50K miles was too much for it. That cost me $2K to get fixed. Then I just turned back the boost to stock and sold it after it hit 100K miles.
Stock top speed was 141mph. I buried my 150 speedo after cranking up the boost to 15-16psi. Stock was 11psi.
