I don't understand what the problem is with the "old technology". It is reliable, is responsive to mods, and it still gets pretty damn good gas mileage when cruising. I don't know about you but Sodium filled valves, prodigious use of titanium, forged internals, and a race ported and polished head aren't exactly what I would call, "old technology." They took tried and true methods of building an awesome engine in a small lightweight package, applied "new technology," and badabing you got a bad ass combo, especially when you start getting into the chassis, body, and suspension.
