I have been known to pass Z28s back in the early 80s. It may have been more coconuts than cubic inches.

Those Lincolns did NOT have downforce. If you could have touched that car fast enough, I bet one finger could have pushed me off the road.

67 GTO.
Got used to those large bucket seats and big car feel. I love that Land Yacht you have Scaarrz. I have an 89 Ford Crown Vic (Midnight Blue) with the black vinyl landau roof and dark blue velour seats...only 60,000 orig miles.... got it from my dad... Very reliable and great condition.. Looks like same wheels on my 89 that you have. I'll send you a pic!

I grew up on a Honda 50 too. Still have it and still runs like a top. I think it was an 84 model year. Lots of fun! The only way my dad would let me ride was if I didn't take it out of first for the first couple months. So I did just that..when he was around.

Ah, the memories..

1964 Chevelle - came with a inline 6 (250) and manual 3spd on the column. I got it when I turned 16. My dad was a dealership mechanic and within one year the Chevelle had a V-8 327 with 4 speed muncie on the floor. Great car.....when I joined the Navy I gave it to my best friend to use while I was gone. Got it back with custom paint and custom wheels. Great car.....

Mine was a '95 Mystic Teal Z28 I bought in '07 with 7200 miles on it. It was loaded with everything, minus leather: T56, T-Tops, gray interior, and the rest of the goodies. She had about 200 passes at the track; went through a couple sets of tires; I added SLP 1 3/4" shorties, Borla adjustable CB with a 4" intermediate pipe, K&N FIPK, 58 mm TB, and great SLP clutch. That car and I went though 3-sets of clutches and I traded her in on a beauty of an '02 Navy Blue Metallic Z28, with 4000 miles, in '03. That car was even more fun, even with the auto'

I've been without a CAMARO, for the last two years, for the first time since I've been driving and I hate it, LOL.
