Well I finally bit the bullet and got T-bars on my '67, I know with the patina, wheels, and stance that it's not a Looker in the truest sense of the word, I feel like it embodies the sleeper spirit of Cal-Look! Really goes to show how much of a bad influence you guys all are on the restoration of this thing Wink

My dad got this shot of me just leaving the line at one of the last races of this summer, ready to chase down that white Vette with all my 1914 CCs of fury!

Best way to lose!
When I raced the Volvo 850R (pic on the previous page my father in law posted it to Facebook. The Volvo driver commented that he didn't expect my Beetle to be that quick! Mid-14's is respectable but not earth shattering!

Personally, I find more enjoyment out of just being beaten fair and square. There's something about the feeling of losing a well-run race on both sides for me, knowing that neither driver is giving an inch to the other. I'm still surprised at how many people have never seen a low 15 second bug! It's always fun to see who comes up to you in the lanes before your second pass to see "what the hell is in that thing?"

Ignore the smoke from the exhaust, just look at the smoke from the tyre!

Seconded. The filter added to the photo helps, but it just looks right. Reminds me of your '63 Lee!
