Eric & anyone else there;
E-mailed Jim Chism the other day,we will be two cars for sure and possibly four there. He is going to give us adjoining garage stalls so we can "share" tools and equipment... My car is a red w/white stripes 65 Fastback GT-350 (look-a-like),I'll be next to a original 65 GT-350 (white w/blue stripes) vintage racer Number 51 B on both sides....
Look us up and come visit,maybe after the track closes we can get together and swap lies over a beer or something....
Been working on my car all weekend to get it ready... Did some changes to the front end suspension and put a bigger front sway bar on,man did that help it out.... Also, a buddy loaned me a brand new Holley 600 cfm double pumper,new in the box,never opened. He had it for his 67 Fastback and just had not put it on. Bolted it on and a first for me,had no gas leaks anywhere.....Man there is a hell of a difference between a vacum secoundary and a double pumper....When you nail it in first,you better watch the tach and be ready to shift because that things jumps to 6000rpms right now,a lot quicker than I expected.... First-second and third gears are much much quicker,forth is still better but with my tall rear gear (3.00) it feels like you are not accelarating very fast anymore.... No need for forth gear at Nashville as my car does about 105 or so mph in third at 5500 to 6000 rpms....Will use to the heck out of first and second though....
See you at the track.....
