Robert recently retook possession of his 1966 Porsche 912.  It had been in storage in very Northern California for about 2 years.  During his drive home he recalled the totally different experience one has when driving a car that is really understood.  When one spends time tuning and paying close attention to the way a car is running, when a car creaks and groans and the driver knows exactly why those noises are happening, then the driver is in complete control.  His state and the state of the car are merged.
