Default Re: Top Day 2 Musclecars?

From a competition standpoint, can a Day 2 1965 build race a Day 2 1970 build and not be handicaped? Cubic inchs aside, &quot;period correct&quot; aftermarket parts dramaticly improved. What &quot;phase&quot; of Day 2 would line up with what? Class and index....

Instantly thought of the movie Two Lane Blacktop. Did the 55 have an advantage over the GTO- maybe all it had going for it were aftermarket rims.

So the 55 wasn't a pure Day 2 car. Maybe I'm less of a Day 2 fan and more of a fan of the aftermarket products from the 1960's!

Also a grudge race/ street race / sleeper / underdog fan. Kinda like how the SCR has encouraged even non-super car rides to participate in the drags.

Hard to bottle it all up, but if you could create a compitition similar to what was happening in an unclassified way on the streets of the USA during the Muscle Car era- that would be magical. Fastest Street Car Shoot-Out circa 1969!
