Yes, 1989 was a 5 speed manual, single turbo. Here's mine (taken in 1990)
I remember those 16" wheels and tires combination seemed really low profile at the time :-)

'68 Camaro Z-28, Hurst package, Ram Air....302 engine. When you floored it, the
ram air intakes on the back side of the hood (by the windshield) opened up to feed the 4-barrels and the engine/exhaust made the most glorious deep howl/growl and you felt the sudden thrust into the back of the front seat until you decided you'd better let off the gas.
Way more car than a high-schooler should have been allowed to drive. Way more. We should be dead - several times over. But it was F-U-N!

1st place is a Ferrari 355, Second Porsche 911
I was with the owner of the Ferrari, and he was a bit of a tight -a$$, so did not really push it= but did a track day in the 911- and drove the snot out of it. Loved it...

Modded 993 911 Turbo that my student owned. Holy crap fast. Got to ride in a RS2 clone
one winter in Minnesota on a frozen lake and that is what got me hooked on Audis. Accelerated faster on ice then my car-at-the-time accelerated on asphalt. The B5 S4 was just out and saw some of the first chipped ones running at that event as well. I knew that I had to had one, but my legs could barely fit with the seat all the way back, so my A6 has been the perfect compromise and I still enjoy every time I get behind the wheel.
