This guy is not an enthusiast. He is reading a script. On his bio at the old 'Hello Scion' site it said his degree is in business and his hobbies are church and baseball.
He's trying to (awkwardly) talk the talk, but he's not walking the walk.
My personal challenge to Jack Hollis: Out hard-core most of us on the board.
With a couple guys from the office, build an Eight-Six to a budget. And race it at the 25 hours of Thunderhill. Do a few HPDE days and Auto-X for testing.
And do it while you are doing everything else you normally do. Work, family, friends. Balance all that, while building a 27 year old car, with cheap used parts, found yourself, dealing with forum and craigslist flakes or searching high and low for the rare new in box JDM parts, that whole jazz.
It's not easy.
Once you do all that, with your own hands (for the most part, at least not just handed off to some techs in a Toyota shop), you will understand us. If you love it, you are one of us.
Hell, film a gritty documentary about your journey to Thunderhill and use it for marketing.
I (I can't speak for everyone, but I think almost everyone will too) will respect you if you can do this.
