Default Re: Street Racing Articles

That Car Craft Street Racing article is really a great read. I remember that article well. The '69 Camaro Z/28 owner was 20-something and his car was pretty radical with a nice Rat motor(468 CID, I think), Lenco 4-Speed and big tires under the rear. He was supposed to race some kind of bad-ass'ed Corvette the weekend Car Craft was in town but the Vette was a no show. So then they agreed to race Kevin Lawrence and his BBC '69 Chevelle that even had a 4-Speed if I remember correctly. I think the cops showed up and put an end to anything happening before the race went down. Kevin Lawrence later ended up with the old Doc Dixon '69 Camaro M/P car and turned it into one of them Chi-Town Outlaw Super Stockers about 20 years ago.
