Count me out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If I can come up with an original set of
tires somewhere for Lucky 13 I have to preserve them. And if I can't,
I have to spend our money (as it trickles in) elsewhere to get the
other cars safe and/or operational again. So I think I'll take a pass....

I would participate as a flagman or course marshal, however.........

Looks like fun but I'm surprised that they let spectators line the route ahead of the starting line. I'd hate to see a family lose a child when one of those cars / drivers loses control. It happens.

Ha, you can tell she couldn't drive the car. This is what I fear when my GF asks to drive the Z. Good video for her to see.....

RIGHT!

Remember, Bob Sharp's original "1969" 240Z, boosted to 325hp and stripped to an even ton with the rollcage installed, bettered the Cobras and Corvettes and Shelby Mustangs of that era with a better power-to-weight ratio. He out accelerated all of them.

Certainly had better aerodynamics than they did, and probably better CoG weight balance.
