Gentlemen:

Just exchanged some info with an old friend in Rome, and we discussed his Fiat 500 from 1972. The car was rumored to be a sport prototype with the sunroof up, and an F1 car with the sunroof open.

I asked if his sport prototype could beat a 512 or 917, and he said sure, if the roads were covered in snow (Roccaraso ski area outside Rome).

I guess in this case, his 500 would win the race !!!
