Default Re: Why race your supercar

These are the reasons you need two cars.A very good friend and myself had the same problem.Both had cars that neither wanted to risk breaking at the track.We both decided to go partners on a car to race.We bought a muscle car,68 Road Runner,and beat the snot out of it.Neither one of us felt like we owned it! Drive it like you stole it brought on a whole new meaning.We built it right.It was still a money funnel though....This was a great solution to "our" problem.We did it every week.....If you "RACE IT" it will break.There is always a weak link somewhere,and you will find it when you least expect it.I lost three new motor mounts at the 60' with street tires(L-60 Inglewoods,remember?).Fan through the radiator,massive coolent leak,nice fishtail across both lanes missing both guardrails.What a ride........Anything is possible...Be careful..
