I went back to that track I mentioned above, this time to drive my car...
..but the rare car sighting I'm reporting was my favorite car at the track this day. Being an old motorhead who loves roadracing, I have a soft spot for American muscle cars. So in spite of all sorts of high end exotic Ferrari's and Porsches and many other nice cars, my fav was this 1964 Pontiac GTO...which would be rare enough even if it was stock, but this one has its own notoriety and is a "one off" handmade special. It was featured as a cover story in Hot Rod magazine a while back, as well as other automotive publications and websites. The young guy who owns and drives it bought it when he was 14 y.o. as a partly stripped out, beater; he fixed it up and drag raced it a while; then got into roadracing but crashed it real bad after a total brake failure...then decided to rebuild the whole car himself into his dream road warrior. This thing was probably the fastest, or at least one of the fastest, cars there this day. Awesome car, I love this thing:
...and a gratuitous closing pic of my car..the black one..next to a real nice small block ERA Cobra, destroked 302 c.i. motor with four two-barrel Webers on it.
