Yeah, I took it racing. Yeah I don't want to put it into a wall. I was actually taking it kind of easy on the track, this year. Going fairly slow on the straights, and working on my cornering.

The suspension is already very tricked out, and running about 2.5" lower on the front, and 2" on the rear. Engine is also lowered an inch and moved to the rear, one inch.

The other reason, I was going slow on the straights, was that I was cited for a noise violation, last year. If I got cited again, I'd get 2 warnings then kicked off the track.

I don't pretend I am a race car driver, but the car was built with driving in mind.

Sorry for the crappy video, but the camera was acting up this year, as was the camera mount.

The idea, is to celebrate, what great cars they were, by driving it, and how much greater they can be with a little modern technology, thrown in.

Yeah, I could do a windsor version, which we considered, or a cleveland, or clevor, but to me, it's not the same thing.

Once again, thanks for the responses. Maybe next week I'll drop the pan and have a peek at the thrust and mains.
