VX Racing history

[mbeach]

That really is a neat idea, I'd buy a book if there were one.


But in reality, the same could be said about the Kia Sportage's racing history. Who would buy that book?

You are right and you are wrong the difference from the Sportage being that the VX was born of a concept car that actually won Japan's car of the year award (that's kind of a race of sorts that the VX won!) and was then all hand assembled, and finally raced Paris/Dakar etc. ( You know the first years of Porsche, the early fifties, they just showed up but didn't win that often.) Can a Sportage boast of a legend like the VX? I doubt it. So...race fans the choice is ours. Do we want to write the book? "Gentlemen (and ladies too, of course) start your legends!" Then lets compile the facts and figures, because we all win when the book goes to the library of Congress (all books do, you know) and motor sports writers will start encountering the "title" when they research their various projects. Right now, the VX is known to just a few underground enthusiasts, more people need to know about its remarkable accomplishments. And watch the resale value soar in a few more years instead of languish in the dark recesses of motoring history, like a Christy What's a Christy you say? (Well you would know if they had just written the book.)
