    Love 24huers de Lemons. The foremost classy guys on the track. The interesting thing is the huge difference in cars and drivers alike on one course.
    Looking like a great project. Tons of parts available and cheap!

      And it needs ‘em, haha Not most reliable choice, but sure makes good sounds. Ponycars have been so popular because they have the right ingredients: big engine up front, rear drive, medium to small size and weight. Winner in fun department!

    Hi Randy! I just realized that we recently passed the 40th anniversary of the time we first met in February 1983. That was also the occasion of my first autocross, the Miami Double Trouble race.

      Hi, Jerry, I remember that early morning drive from Melbourne to Miami area. You had a cool Rabbit, right\? Wait, maybe Mazda GLC?

    Should be exciting. You should paint the car the universal old person color.,,,beige or taupe! Maybe light grey. Then put a bunch of distinctly elderly companies on there like you have now, but go with brands that don't exist anymore and some that do, like Metamucil',Tang, Chock ful'o nuts, Sanka, BenGay, Fixodent would play for both ways, Burger Chef, Kirby Vacuums, Diner's Club Card, and maybe Winston cigarettes since Marlboro has become so popular again.

      I love Summit Racing, we can get just about everything we’d ever need there, quick in the mail. Even a warehouse here in Atlanta. Huge dream-weaver store. Summit is a partner on my Randit ‘77 Trans Am, and it also the best place to buy what I need for the Trans Am and even my Flyin Moose Volvo 👍 cue: @summitracing @yokohamatire

    I'd leave it as is and name it "Dolly". It's the car of many colors. Even if it's not all that fast, watching the cowl shake and creaking body that sounds like an old pirate ship should be entertaining.

    • @golfr59
      @golfr59 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@randypobstofficial Don't get me wrong... the engine is actually pretty stout. And if the dang Optispark unit doesn't get you, you will be most likely just fine. Making sure that there are no leaks (oil or water) above the Optispark is absolutely crucial. Power washing the engine bay is also a big no no. Well and then there is heat. This engine does not like heat. A good ( and I mean very good) cooling system is important as well. The head gaskets on these engines do not take overheating so it's best to never even get close to overheating. So in racing/track conditions, it is important to make sure the cooling is perfect. I ran the LT1 engine in my Golf for the first two years and had more trouble than it was worth. But all that is My experience and doesn't mean you will have those issues. So DO IT.... :).
