I know that there are plenty of GT's that can beat me, just none that are close to stock. My car is nearly stock except for 3" turbo back exhaust, intake, Walbro 255 HPFP, and port/polish TB.
I don't doubt that you could take me in a straight line drag, but that is not what my car is set up for.

I think he likes racing around turns....

You ever get any pics/vids of your car? I'd love to see a daily driven 408 carb'ed motor. That's definately something you NEVER see. Good selection of heads apparently, your tq nearly matches the hp.

Yea, I've never met anyone who can daily drive a car like yours, especially in cold weather/warm weather w/o having to constantly adjust the carb. Much less one that has an extreme set of heads and a super healthy cam, is it a solid roller?, to match.

Here's a few of my 7 at the race, for anyone who can appreciate the rotary power and styling.

it's called camber. it aids in fast cornering/turning. you'll notice lots of race cars have it. some more than others.
