You can always find a buyer wanting to relive their Risky Business fantasies if you want to unload the Porsche. Who are you going to unload the Lincoln on? Someone who served on an aircraft carrier?

Oh?

Wouldn't take too much work, and if built to use 12g cartridges (like those in pellet guns / whipped cream dispensers) I bet you could get it down into the cigarette-pack or a little larger range.

An intense, highly focussed artificial gravity field may be doing the bullet steering, too.

You saw the same thing when Dale Sr. hit the wall in Daytona - rescue teams just standing there, looking into the car, knowing there's nothing to be done.
Wonder what the lap times ol' Ayrton is putting in on the road course at Fiddler's Green.

Take a handful of rusty, 24d nails, hold the head end in your teeth, and press the points against a blackboard. Now jump up and down. His only saving grace is that he isn't Jim Carrey.
