Those little 7" wide tires on the rear wouldn't come close to gripping the pavement.
I had TA Radials on my sled.

I was referring to the Biscayne name. I've always called them biscuits. 
I have actually been rather surprised at how well I've seen stock cars hook up on those modern rubber compound reproduction tires.

I thought you were referring to the hubcaps on the car. They kind of resemble biscuits.

I always wanted to build a sleeper from like a 2door 68 fairlaine. But at the same time if I were to hit the lottery first car I would have built would be a falcon sprint. Dad had one many a year ago that he street raced. Had a 302 with a 4spd. It's one of those wish he still had cars. The vertical sliding heater controls on the dash was the only thing he didn't like. Said every time he got busy jamminn gears he would bust his knuckles open on those.

Love the hub caps too. I could so build a 65 Biscayne just like that one....

I think it's a good looking car, just think the spoiler is a little much. Looks out of place and like an afterthought.

Ok so the trunk/ hatch has essentially a built in spoiler and someone added that wing contraption.. I would be embarrassed to drive around on city streets with a wing like that...now it just needs a big fart can or better yet a pair of fart cans. Sorry I know those 4cyl cars are pretty quick and that one has some Porsche esq body lines but that just don't look right. Looks like an 8yo designed it

Haha. That is brand new straight from the Porsche factory. It's a 6 cyl, prolly turbod. I'd love to drive it, but would never buy one. I like Porsches without radiators.
Porsche 911 GT3 RS - Porsche USA
500 HP 193 MPH top speed 3.1 0-60
Pretty serious piece of hardware.
Wing is probably function over form kinda like some of the street cars with oversize mailbox hood scoops.

I heard something today that didn't inspire confidence... There is a prediction that by 2030, electric cars will have taken over and a majority of people won't even own or know how to drive cars. I'm scared to see what that could do to gas prices for our fun cars... I'm all for electric cars, but I'm not about to give up my pushrod oil burnin gas guzzling cars.
If the engine did not have to drag that sail (wing) I an sure the car would eclipse 200.

Back in high school I did a report on aerodynamics. The most interesting and shocking thing I discovered, Porsches have been proven to be more aerodynamic facing backwards.
