Here's something you don't see every day

Yes, it's a huge Ford County Squire wagon.

And it's racing.

But not quarter mile racing like one would think. It's running an autocross.

For something as big and heavy as this thing is, the driver hustles it through the cones quite well.

That's great. There's something cool about being so different and accomplishing that in spite of people saying it can't be done.

You'd have to replace all the paneling and hood with fiberglass and... jesus, it'd be expensive to make that a viable option for autoX.

It'd just be cheaper to go buy a used 914 for like $1200.
