Let's show vintage racing pictures. I'll start.

Unusual tyre balance on that Camel car front to rear, effective rear track is way more than the front too. Be fun to drive.

The GTU car was the one Bob Sharp picked when I asked of all his cars if he only could drive one which would it be. The rear tires sit on 15 inch rims which was allowed after the Porsche teams requested a rule change. That change was reversed after Bob won the Championship. For vintage events I am required to run 7 inch wide rims but for "fun" events I run 10s in the rear and on slicks not treaded tires. The lap times vary depending on distance covered but I picked up 5 seconds at The Glen on a test & tune day based on using just 10 inch wide rears. With 15s instead it would not be hard to imagine that I could take corners with more entry speed and hook up quicker coming out.

Is that the Camel car you are talking about?

These are the pictures I want to see come out of the shoeboxes and in to the light. Some of the more obscure efforts.

Elkhart Lake mid-1970s.

Looks like Butch is going to jack up the radiator cap and run a new race car under it!
