Roger---the first trip out will probably be with my Firebird--It has a few mods--lowed roof, lenghtened deck/wing/spoiler, ground effects tunnel thru the middle, floor board on bottom of frame tubes--
You have to do several things for license/qualifying certain speed ranges, crew functions, etc, etc
I actually want to go the 300 quest in my Everette-Morrison Cobra----it will have a few mods to improve aero and limit lift---Planning on a fighter plane type canopy/windshield (one side) and rolling the engine to the right several degrees to allow me to extend the left side foot box to allow a lower/more reclined driver position-- the left side cylinder head will be vertical and rt side horizonal to ground--this will allow me the longer foot box area plus room for supercharger in front of driver
The first model car I built was a 32 Ford roadster by Revell in the mid 50's.
How did you get hooked on cars?
