Cool! I'm hoping to be at the show (business allowing). With all of your support, Robert's car show has grown into an important fund raiser for the American Cancer Society. I'm very proud of what he has achieved.

Some background to the other Rlisters reading the thread, my brother Robert (killbugsfast) holds an annual Porsche and Classic Car show at his house in Mississippi with proceeds going to the ACS. Over the years the cars that have attended have varied from our race cars to military amphibious vehicles, hot-rods, etc.

Everyone is welcome, all you need is a love of cars, a nominal donation (large ones are accepted ) and a big appetite.

Very nice video, I enjoyed watching you rock through the 14,15,16 complex last weekend, your car is really hooked up.

Thanks Mark! I'm humbled.... If I could only turn the fan club into sponsorship money, I could race Daytona

VR, it will make more power up to 8,600 but I kept the rev limiter we are required to run at vintage events. (costs less in the long run ). I should do some hot laps with the 8600 MSD pills on.

Shifting at 8,200 we have service intervals at over 80 race hours!

+1! Great time for a 2-liter car. I don't think even Cody does that in his ST replica!

Thanks for sharing.

Wow, 8,200 for 80 hours is awesome. Not even con rod bearings?

I'm running an 8K rpm 3.0L 12.5 motor that get's crb's at 25hrs.

Awesome driving.
8200 rpm in lightweight looks like a lot of fun!
