Funny a great time when I was younger was to take my big block SS Camaro with Pozzi out in a snow filled parking lot (with a pretty girl in the passenger seat) and do donuts. It is a party and teaches you to a degree how to steer out of a spin. I also had a go cart in my much much younger days that you could have an absolute party in the rain with. Spinning and drifting all over the place.
I would like to take my sons out to do some donuts in the snow but unfortunately that is near impossible to do in modern cars. I was thinking of taking him to Skip Barber racing school to help him learn those lessons in a "controlled" environment.
I might mention I did take a 5 day Skip Barber SCCA licence school at Laguna Seca so I get it.
With all that said my thinking is that Billboards look great but I would never drive on Bias Ply tires.
I would not build one of these cars not to drive it. I read up on the Avon's and they sound better but the website talks about and I paraphrase not to sticky for vintage cars". I will have to read into that further.
The Goodyear F1 mention earlier was interesting.
So as a point of interest, lets say you get a nice 650 hp FE under the hood. Are you ever able to go WOT? If so please describe when and the sensation?
