tell ya what i would like to see at some of the street car races..... i wanna see some parallel parking and 3 point turns like you have to do to get your license. lol im sure there is some other stuff you could do to exploit the differences between a "street car" and a "street-able car". it might be a bit far fetched but it would be funny as hell watching the cars trying to do stuff like that.

Truth I would call it a streetable race car, but that car made a 1200 mile round trip in the rain and ripped off a sub 7 sec time then drove home. Has working lights tags and insurance. This is a very extreme example Ill give you that but this guy is willing to drive it on the street and does it.

The whole argument of AC I think is irrelevant as my 68 GTO never had it, only had a heater. Guess it was a factory race car then lol. IMO if its tagged/ insured/ has working lights/ and a DOT tire/Runs on pump gas E85 or 93 and can be driven to a track and run then driven home or taken out for a cruise/driven to work at random reliably. Its a street car. RCF/SG99/Rays mopar/my car/most of SBMs old rides = street cars.

Your 68 GTO (Read: Monaro) is a factory race car!

Nope it was a real GTO with real poncho power, not a re badged manaro. the new GTO didn't deserve the name. GTO is arguably the first real muscle car and is given credit for starting the craze that is still ongoing today, It was revolutionary for its time and everybody in its time wanted one. The new GTO didn't even come with hood scoops when released in 04 Every goat prior to that did, it was one of its distinguishing features some where functional some.

People can say a new GTO/manaro was/is faster but only when raced against a base GTO, Try a stock 1964 421 tri power or a XS block coded 67 (Also known as Ram Air 1) My dad's car/my car now was a mostly stock Intake/Holley 850/Headers 67 with M21 4 speed, never had AC, had 3.90 gears from the factory and a XS coded motor would routinely run 12.0-12.1 @ 116 factory cam/ internals/ no port and polishing.

you could take a top fuel car, set it up for regular gas, and put some magnetic towing lights on it and run drag week too..... lol
