On Speed last night...a '69 Camaro Z/28,'70 Boss 302,'70 Challenger T/A,Javelin (didn't catch the year),and an vintage east coast '69 Camaro SCCA T/A car (University of Pittsburg?)ran 1/4 mile times as well as braking and road course times against each other for best times.The street Z/28 took top overall spot closely followed by the Boss 302...but then we already knew that,didn't we?
The vintage T/A car supposedly had a lot of input at the time from Roger Penske,hence the Blue w/Yellow wheel color combination.
I tell you,that Peter Klutt guy from Dream Car Garage can't drive worth a s**t!The guy just is not smooth.
The good thing about this show was that it was on Speed and it wasn't about NASCAR.
I have had several conversations with Craig Jackson from B-J about ponycar/musclecar shows on Speed and spoke at length with Vic Edelbrock at this years Historic Races in Monterey regarding a vintage T/A series...looks like it may be a reality in 2006.
Is it just me or is anyone sick with the 24/7 NASCAR coverage on Speed?
I'm hoping that this is just the start of many more musclecar-type shows from Speed in the future.
