It is Friday and that means the weekend is looming and fun is going to be had. This time of the year there are family holiday parties, office parties, drunken mall Santas, and people jumping into frozen lakes for fun. Those people are morons. Our idea of fun is shown in this video of a 1990 Spice race car, powered by a Ferrari V8 hauling tail around the Daytona road course at a recent Historic Sportscar Racing event. We last showed you video of a 1966 Shelby GT350 traversing this famed ribbon of asphalt and it sounded great with a 289 wailing away. That being said, there’s not much in the world that sounds like a small displacement Ferrari V8 at full throat and this car is certainly at full throat at least a couple of times in this video.
This is an interesting car that many BangShifters may not be that familiar with. Spice was a race car manufacturer started in England by a guy named Gordon Spice in the late 1980s. They had great success in IMSA racing and other series and their cars were powered by a wide array of engines ranging from Pontiac “Super Duty” four cylinders to Buick engines, and like in this video Ferrari mills. This is one of the Spice cars that sports the more rare Ferrari V8 power.
The flat plane crank combined with the revs makes this one sexy sounding monster. It sounds neat getting run through the gears around the track and hitting terminal velocity on the high banks of the oval. Yes, it gets passed a time or two but boy, NOTHING sounded better on the track when the Spice was rolling in anger!

What could be cooler than a Ferrari? How about the 1964 Ford Falcon blowing by at 0:29?

Yeah, that Ferrari was getting its lunch eaten by a real V-8 – as it happens all of the time. I have never seen a car company with more show and less go get so much credit. And before some Ferrari guy says I don’t know what I am talking about, my job allows me the privilege of having driven more than one – without the ridiculous BS that comes with owning one. I can tell you they are fun and I know I am lucky to have the experience, but I would never in a million years own one. Want to take the engine out every three years for service even if you don’t drive it, and still get smoked by most Corvettes? Be my guest.
I for all time emailed this webpage post page to all my associates, as if like to read it then my links will too.
