Wow, that's fast. I'm not sure of the performance of the ST-300 at that time or if loose converters were legal in stock classes. I'll have to check my vintage rule book later to see how that's addressed.

Do you think a well sorted B/SA GTO would go 13:00-10 ? That would be a blast!

I'm not sure if that's Moll's GTO. The only photos I have of of his '65 show Rally I Wheels and splitters, and I believe Moll's was a hardtop where the one I posted is a post coupe.
