Tom --

For preparation of the cars, try the "Competition Preparation Manual" for 
the GT6.  It's written by Kas Kastner and probably includes most of the 
competition modifications that were made to the stock 1969/70 cars.  I say 
"probably" because the manual is in its second edition (1977) and some of 
the 1969/70 techniques may have been supplanted by more effective measures. 
 I say "most" because I don't think Kastner liked to share all of his trick. 
 The manual is cheap ($5.00?), it's available from the Roadster Factory, but 
I don't know whether it's in stock.
