No, I don't think the '68 Gibb Novas belong on the list because that's a factory race car. Factory race cars like Z-11 Impalas, '62-3 SD421 Catalinas, Thunderbolts, aluminum front end Race Hemis, etc. should be exempt along with Corvettes/Vipers. All 10 cars have to be something relatively available to ANYONE that could've walked into a dealer and drove away in. Don't forget that this list is just TOP 10 and NOT 10 Fastest. That means although the '67-69 Z/28's are far from the fastest with that torque-lacking motor, it's such an iconic Musclecar that it belongs anyway.

Could you possibly think twice about that!!!!! Many of the 1968 GIBB COPO NOVAS were just driven home and used as daily drivers, and "a little street racing maybe"!!! I think they deserve to be on the list even though some people chose to use them just for racing....Just my opinion, and hope that is O.K. Mark in St. Louis........... n.g.

Well since you guys are going to let a few of the pony cars remain on the list a substitution is needed in the Ford catagory. The 68 1/2 Cobra Jet Mustang with factory 4.30/4 speed is going to be pretty hard to beat in any drag race stock vs stock
