Stan,
Get the GY's for two reasons:
1) They MAY reguire a suspension with very little camber change, etc. Since
your vintage car may have lots of camber change the GY's MAY be slower for
you which MAY make it so that I can beat you.
2) If you beat me, I can say it was the GY's being faster than my Hoosiers.
Otherwise I have to give the credit to your driving or your Dennis Shaw
motor (opps, I've got one of those also).
Now, doesn't that help!
Looking forward to having you back in the class. Hope I'm faster:-)
