In one of the most famous street races documented in a Cars Magazine article, the Super John Camaro ran the Mutt Brothers Hemi dart.
The Dart was the old S&K Speed Inc. Hemi Dart.
It was called the "Quarter Million Quarter Mile" street race. Each side put up $125K cash and the race was run near Kennedy Airport
From what I read, Harrell built the Super John Camaro from a "body in white" body shell from Chevy and may have been acid dipped. The engine was said to be a ZL1 block larger then 427 so maybe a 454 or 494. It is hard to confirm the stories.
The Dart won
