Great engine

Is that allowed in vintage racing? Just asking.

offshore241

Yes, there are actually several groups that you can run with.

SCCA, it runs in Vintage with treaded tires, and SPO or GT1.

It would run well on slicks with the great guys at V8 Stock car.

HSR, and SVRA have run groups as well. There are some cars in both groups with some crazy engine set ups !!

Not to mention, making the Porsche and Ferrari guys weep on track days.....

HSR is Run What you Brung - and Hope You Brung Enough.
