I drag raced back in the early 70s winning class in my 409 Impala in a couple of IHRA events. Autocrossed my 78 Trans am pretty heavily with road race slicks and took it to a Porsche road race event at Texas World Speedway in College Station. Still had the 180 hp 400 and 2.56 rear gears. Would only pull 4000 in third on the oval straight. Most of the road course was in 2nd. Then switched it to drag racing in NMCA.
I picked up a Late Model asphalt car -fuel cell area crunched I was going to make a budget road race car just not enough time and money with other projects.

A few Nascar laps would be cool too.
