...his '95 Dodge Caravan (3.3L V6) vs my bone stock '74 VW Super Beetle (1600DP).

Probably next weekend. Just wondering who do you think'll win. :D Should have a video up of it when it happens too, if anyone would be interested in the most boring race of all time :p

Not to pee in your Wheaties, but I wouldn't put too much ($) on the race. Having owned both a 91 Caravan with the 3.3, and a stock 74 SB, I think you will have your hands full. You should at least get him off the starting line. Maybe see if you can agree on a shorter distance. I think you may get run down in the end. Oh well, have fun, and don't be overly abusive to your car, and end up breaking it.

That Caravan will annihilate a stock Beetle. I doubt you'd even out 60-ft. him.

Now if it was the 4 cylinder Caravan...
chances are it would breakdown or run low on oil before
the finish line !
