Hello Anchor2,

Don't know yet about my Daytona......nor have I ever seen any of the original Coupes on the track. 200 MPH is a scary place on the ground and you need a long straight away to get there. Saw Scott Douglas's Coupe at Sears but, he never pushed it that hard....his is one of the old coupes built by Contemporary and follows the form factor of the originals.

Talked to Bondurant when he was here at Sears Point and his opinion is the FFR Coupe has the capability but, does not need more than 400HP to do it, more to do with spring rates, set-up etc. than engine power.

Tony R.
