Thank you Philip, Sergio, and VK. One of the things that made it a memorable day was a road trip to Lime Rock Park with my British car club - there were 22 vintage cars in total: MGs, Triumphs, Jaguars, a Lotus 7 and an Austin Healey 100. Lime Rock is the 3rd oldest road race track in the country, and is a part of the IMSA racing circuit. At lunch break, when the course is empty and the pits are silent, the club members cars were assembled to make four easy laps of the course. On the back straight where racing speeds typically reach 140-150MPH. I'd get my old TR6 up to 70MPH or so. Exciting enough for my (and my car's) old bones.

Here's a short video of the circuit. Take A Lap Around Lime Rock Park - YouTube

Here's me doodling along.

Very cool. I almost went out to Kansas Speedway to take my 1996 Impala SS around for a lap, but we would have been limited to 60 mph, so I decided it wasn't worth the price
