Why race your supercar

[Jeff H]

I have no problem with driving a high dollar, rare performance car, but drag racing it at the dragstrip is for the rich and famous. It's easy to say that anything can be fixed or repaired, but no insurance company is going to cover your car that gets damaged going down the strip. Since I'm not one of the rich and famous, you'll never see me running my JL8 down the dragstrip or on a road race course if I have no insurance coverage. I'll drive it on the street where it's covered. I've spent the last 5 years of my life saving money for this car and its restoration. I can see if you are the original owner of a supercar and paid 1969 prices for it and still race it today. That's different if you never plan on selling the car. I'd love to see someone running their original supercar down the track, but it won't be me. This is just my opinion and point of view.
