The Camaro did not road race in 1966. It was not eligible until the new racing season started after the new year in 1967. I'm not 100% sure but I think that was the case with most racing organizations, including NHRA. By the time the new racing season started, the Z28 was in (limited) production. The Stormer ads that you saw were posted by me on www.1967z28.com and they were from publications dated in 1967. The Stormer was based on the Z28 and did not debut until the Z28 was made available. The Z28 was a car built to fit road racing rules and requirements. There were some non-Z28s that did get raced in '67 but they did so with 302 engines. Two cars come to mind. The Dick Guldstrand and Tom Lynch cars, both from the Dana Chevrolet race shop. SS350 bodies were used because the Z28 was not immediately available in California and work needed to get started for them to make the Sebring race that first year.

Jon,
Thanks for the update,however, I did know about Daytona, Sebring and Michigan in 68 but totally missed the 1967 Glen Race. I had most of the Glen Lineups including the June 25 race .As you know my old Gary Morgan Trans-Am Camaro ran most of the Club Races at the Glen so I had the info but just did not pick up the "Mo" Carter entry. Thanks again,
Don

Hi Don,

We've hit a bit of a snag with the architect...we can't fit a 5 car garage on the land! So, we are doing some reno's on the current house to make it last another couple of years and are selling the land in Dundas. We're looking for a larger lot- perhaps in Carlisle. All of my books etc. are stored in Rubber-maid bins (my wife is obsessed with those things) to make room for the construction. I'll look for you at Mapleview etc. to catch up. Take care,
