top one is at Pocono, bottom is Lime Rock last year

btw, my car has the red tape on the lights in the bottom pic. That was coming to the line for the win, I still say I won but they didn't

yea if you want to call it testing. I would say goofing off! best run was a 13.78 @105 mph. w/ a 2.4 short time. Thats with 100,000 mile tires, 3.27 gears and 500lbs. springs in the rear. I was happy w/ the mph though, its not bad for a road racing car. I think I could have run faster to 60 ft. though. Plus the carb was still jetted from a race in nov. w/ 48deg. temps.

its really only a gt-40 ironhead crate motor in it now.

I'm not too familiar with racing classes. What do you compete in?

Its built for SCCA A/sedan. but I also ran w/ a club in northeast called EMRA (eastern motor racing ass.) great club that puts on races on the cheap. Emra classes are similiar to SCCA but the also include many other classes and will allow any car to race even if it doesn't fit in a class. the pic from pocono is from an EMRA race thats why I'm there w/ all diff. cars. I don't know if you guys could make out the Busch North car in the back just in front of the Cobra, but thats whats great about the club, Run What Ya Brung!

Emraracing.org is their website, check it out.
