You may be able to catch 3 GTAs racing in a parking lot--that is if I can stay
away from curbs.  My car is white (same as my 68 GTV), a friends is that
purple/plum color of his 71 GTV, and another friends is silver (so he can see
it when we are racing at night even though he has a red spider).  I seem to be
behind the wall rebuilding my front end most race days as I drive a little to
aggressive.  I've broken both mirrows off in rolls and have sheet plastic
damage on the left front clip.  I've ordered a new body (this one will be red)
to sit on the car when not racing, numerous front-end parts, and a sway bar
kit (the sliding block rear-end appears to be missing and the damn thing
pushes like hell).

The GTA exhaust note is not brraapp or vvrroomm, but zzzzbuzzz.  No Ansa
here--but I do have the Ansa center and tail on my 77 spider and like the
sound much better than stock--though its hard to quantify--the webers bark
over the note from inside the car .
