Great car and it's fantastic that the car is back in action.

How did you get by with just a short sleeved shirt and no gloves???

Fantastic!  I raced SCCA for 10+ years.  Retired now, but I still get the itch when I see a cool car like that.

The track hosts a "drag and drift" night every couple of weeks.  So you are only going through a few turns of the road course. It's not wheel to wheel racing so the safety requirements are just current belts, helmet and some type of head/neck restraint.  Horse collar acceptable for this event.  It was an easy/cheap way for me to get some shake down time in the car.  Worked great.  Was able to indentify a few issues I want to work on before commiting to a full track day.

Wow!  Very cool and glad to see it moving.  I’ve always overlooked that body style and now you have me second guessing.  

Cheers, 
Billy
