Welcome To The Madness insert first name here. I'm in Vancouver. Al
Welcome to the madness.
I wish you good luck on your search, may you find the right car for you.
Wintermute - You won't find a better place to research your quest for a replica Speedster! Welcome to the Madness!
Welcome to the madness. I'm guessing the origin of the name Wintermute, is the one I think it is. If so, then speedsters may very well be your Icebreaker routine.

It is. Was somewhat surprised it wasn't taken actually.
Anyone wanna let us Southerners in on the joke?
Lane- I don't get it either???
Wintermute is the name of a character in a book called Neuromancer. A book most of us here would not read. Here is a quick bit regarding the story:
Drug addict and brilliant cyberspace hacker Henry Dorsett Case is recruited by razor girl Molly Millions, who is under contract to ex-military man Armitage. Case's recently damaged nervous system is preventing him jacking into cyberspace, and Armitage offers to repair the damage in return for a hacking job. Lost without cyberspace, Case agrees to the operation. Armitage installs mafia insurance in the form of toxin sacs in Case's bloodstream. Molly and Case grow close; they investigate Armitage, and discover that he is being controlled by an Artificial Intelligence named Wintermute.
Wintermute kills the agents and Case unleashes the Icebreaker....hence Theron's reference to a new Speedster as his Icebreaker.
How'd I do Theron??
Actually it does sound like something I would read, at least a few years back. I've got SF books two layers deep in a triple bookcase.
I'm still trying to get through my Mad Magazines!

Written in 1983. On a typewriter. Coined "cyberspace".
You have to be Canadian to understand. Like how did Canada get its name. They put a bunch of letters in a bucket and began to pull them out. "C eh?, N eh? , D, eh? My son is law is Canadian so I am authorized to tell lousy Canadian jokes.
