Re: 1967 COPO Corvettes 10?
Saw two great 67 Z's race at Road America last weekend.
The 302's were pulling 8400 RPM with 4:11 gears on the front straight. Ed Jensen and Jim Bradley were the owners, nice guys and beautiful cars. Jim lost his motor on Saturday and was out of Sundays race. |

Here in Seattle, at the Vintage Races held over July 4 weekend, they had a Vintage TransAm class with 22 cars registered, 5 of which were 67 Z28's!! Some nice 68's too including the Penske car and Smokey Yunick's car.

Got to love those high windin' 302's [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/worship.gif[/img] I hope to get out to the West coast some time to take in the vintage races. I'm stunned that these cars run given the value of them today!!!

Re: 1967 COPO Corvettes 10?
It was soooo cool! The race I watched had a 67 Z28, a 69 Boss 302, and a 70 Challenger jockeying for the lead position, with one of the three taking the lead on every lap. The crowd was going nuts, Hollywood couldn't have staged a better race. Naturally, the 67 Z won in the end. To my surprise, the owner lives not 10 miles from my house.

Denis... If it was the Group I'm thinking of , the Race and Lead changes were staged. Not real Racing, just putting on a Show. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif[/img]
