Ran across this article completely by fluke, turns out, this girl at age 12, convinced her parents to let her use her babysitting money to purchase an 86 Fiero SE and shes been at it for 2 years now stripping the car down for a full rebuild (with the help of her dad and uncle). shes received unprecedented support from the Fiero community aswell as other companies (3M being the biggest heavy hitter). I went through her entire worklog and must say, im quite impressed, alot of dedication, most certainly makes for a good read!

Not sure if this has made it onto these boards yet but didnt turn up anything in the searches, so apologies if its a repost!

so just took a look at the thread again, little piece of the latest update made me "wtf no fair" a bit in the back of my head lol...
" She may be working with an Indy Team race engineer to do some of the machining and find some more power from the 3.4 "
so basically, her dads vette could potentially get its mid life crisis a-- handed to it by an 86 fiero on roids lol
