        No joke, the McLarens of the 80's (the turbo era) started out with
porsche engines, then went to Honda's, and were increadibly succesful.  Mind
you they did have talents like Senna, Prost, Berger...  They really made a
name for them selves(Honda that is).
        Now they are running Mercedes engines, while their amazing GT cars
run with M power.  


                        i want me one of those!
