I think Grumpy had even said this (per the bio book someone wrote). The Nova wsa better for Drag Racing, but the Chevy guys wanted him to run Camaros for PR reasons. He said the long nose on the Camaro wasn't exactly the hot set-up, and that the overhang behind the wheels on the Nova made it a better drag chassis.
