I quit using the fuel filler about 10 years ago because it would spill fuel out the cap vent under hard cornering. I machined a piece of aluminum bar stock to fit the filler hose diameter and then used a 4" length of hose to connect it to the tank. The block is drilled and tapped for (3) an-6 fittings, I have AN-6 hose to a 1-way check valve for a tank breather, another as a fuel return line for the injection system and a 3rd for filling the tank with a shut off valve that I open and close for fueling.
I fill the tank with a portable Holley blue pump to pump out of a drum or five gallon can, the cap is for decorative purposes only now. I can add fuel at about 1.5 gallons a minute so it isn't too big a hassle. I guess you could do the same thing with the racing cap or better yet a racing fuel filler.
The down side, I cannot fill the car at a gas pump but a small price to pay for safety.
