When we were in high school, we built up our cars and they were very fast. Drum brakes, no shoulder belts (some didn't even have lap belts), unsafe modifications, limited safety restrictions, lousy roads... the list goes on but I think you get my drift. Some of our friends got hurt and killed in these cars.

The new Camaro is a heck of a lot safer than some of the monsters we used to "drive" (I should say hot rod). I say let the next generation of hot rodders have a Camaro and encourage them to learn how to be safer than we were in high school.

IMHO

Nice Corvair...
