Man, I can't believe I can't find a pic of the real car. I didn't realize how little regard the WSC era had. Anyhoo...

4 Doyle Racing Riley & Scott Mk.3 Oldsmobile. Winner, 1996 24hrs of Daytona (W.Taylor/J.Pace/S.Sharp). SWMBO still teases me (after finding an old wrinkled copy of "On Track" reporting the win while snooping through my souvenirs) that her marque (she drives a 93 Bravada) has at least one more overall victory there than my own (VW). Berkeley, I love that woman..

Hell, most of my posts are all in this thread. Not sure what other value my posts here are.
More than you think, probably. I've seen you give better advice to your Mopar buds than I've given to VW guys..you know your chosen marque pretty berkelying well!

Aw, hell yeah! I was on vwvortex back when that thing was being built. I can't find the original build thread..but I found the one he made when he finished it. http://forums.vwvortex.com/showthread.php?2876938/page1 And yeah, the lack of snobs is why I don't go to the vortex much anymore..except for when I'm looking for parts. Thanks for the conversation, gotta hotlink now.. Round 4 of the1966 Trans-American Championship, Virginia International Raceway. #14 Plymouth Barracuda, R.Petty/C.Raineville. DNF (mechanical). Recall that T/A races were *much* longer back then..modern T/A races are 90mi. or so..the 66 race at VIR was 400mi. Iron men in Big Iron!
