I would have run faster but the polyglass tires would just burn up and melt. I didn't want to replace the 8 lugs on it and since I had a 65 GTO race car. It didn't make sense. I would tow my race car with the 2+2. I still own the 65 GTO I owned that car since I was 16 years old. Its waiting in storage for a resto back to stock. Every ones car come first then its mine. That's just the way it is.
That's the way it is with everyone who turns a wrench. I like your 'vert. That's gonna make a nice ride.
