Nice restoration. Probably very fast (in a straight line). I bet it handles like a tractor. (/bimmerhead)
I was at the track this weekend with a bunch of historic NASCARS, mostly from the 90s, so there's very little about them that's "stock". I didn't run at the same time as any of them, but a buddy was in a race with some of them (and a random assortment of other race cars). He had a Miata that was mostly stock other than having the interior stripped, stiffer shocks and racing slicks. He qualified ahead of some the backmarkers of the NASCAR group. It was interesting to see this 137 HP car try to cope with 700 HP cars when the green flag dropped.
