Yup, I'm a dinosaur and love it.

My philosophy is more similar to Gordon Murray's. Light weight cars with a manual trans and IC engine.
Amen, couldn't have said it better.

They can go ahead and flaunt the acceleration and occasional emotionless track times (before they over heat) all day, I'll be in the canyons and tracks taking corners with a properly weighed FR 6MT ICE car with an intoxicating exhaust note.

And no, it was never about the track times, not for a weekend and occasional track car at least.
Performance is multi dimensioned and track times , as hard as they try to make you believe it is, is not the only thing that measures performance.
