Well, it's about set ups & skill.If Donohue could outrun a P/T car with old technology & smaller engine, 4 speed etc then it's not the car but driver that's the limiting factor. So does fitting aftermarket subframes, bigger engines, brakes etc make the car faster or is it just driving skills? as was said on another thread, would the average P/T owner know which subframe, brakes etc were under the car? I don't want this to get all negative & start a war I was just curious as to what people thought ie do they think they could outrun a well set up historic road racer because they have the "parts"?. Please don't start a slanging match.
I'm hoping to bring my road legal racer to the US next year & wouldn't mind seeing how it compares to the P/T cars on a road/race track. I'm certainly no Donohue, but can shoe a car ok, could be fun
