1995CobraR
Three time Champion
I am an old guy. I graduated from the Road Atlanta Driving School in 1990. It was sponsored by Datsun, and we drove the old 300ZX cars in the school. They did not handle well. A good lap time was below 2:00 minutes.
That is old since it was before Dr. Panoz bought Road Atlanta. He took out the famous "Dip" in the back straight and replaced it with T-10A and T-10b. He wanted an IMSA car event which he got.
I raced a SCCA BMW 2002 in 1990. It was not competitive. SCCA liked wrecking cars at the time. I moved to vintage racing. I won some in a 1959 Austin Healey Sprite. It would do a !:52 lap time. The cost of racing was very expensive for me.
A good friend offered me a race prepared 1965 Mustang for the Sprite.We did the deal in 2 minutes.
I made a few modifications with much help from other Mustang guys.
It did win the podiums.
