There is something to be said about learned car control.

Let's say somebody like Milt Minter, probably an expert , drives a 72 T with Solex carbs on a shorter race track against your 930 with you driving. Like Motorsport Ranch. Not real long straights.

He knows the car, though, and he has not an ounce of turbo powaaaahhhh.

You going to beat him? I know you have a motorsports background but a dude that lives it, car control, and is good, I think will beat you.

RIP to Minter.
