Is that your competitor?

Is my current race car ..... about to be retired to one of the Historic Racing categories because it is so old

It was built in 1972 ... I've had it for a very long time and need to "come current" - hence the Z34 engine project and all the other stuff planned or in progress - like adding 300kg is "lightness" to the Z34 chassis.

The Z34 needs to be quicker ......

Sweet ride!

Hate to say it but way cooler than our Z's. Yes I said it...Sorry.

The 4.08 FD gears, Mechanical Diff, and yeah add -300 lbs ,the car is quick. I have been able to get to -200 or so- I really need to get my car weighed at some point.
I have another 60-80 lbs planned, but it's the expensive kind.

I want my Z34 at 1250-1280kg and it is 1520kg now - it needs a 'big" diet.

Impressive!

Like I said, this is what my Z34 project is designed to improve upon .... I am looking forward now although I will still run the "old antique" until the Z34 is ready ... hoping for Round 1 next year in late-March, but a lot of work to be done before then.
