Re: ZL-1 Race cars
Joe, last race for the 1971 season. Jane won it by the margin of .6 of a second with the victory giving him the championship. Car came from Rathman Chevrolet (?) in Florida. Jane bought two. One was supposed to have been drag raced but I can't find any record of it. Jane contacted Chevrolet about the cars and they chased them up for him.
Car ran 4 wheel discs. It was'nt until the next season that CAMS realised it was a Z28
only option and made him change. Won 1972 again anyway.
Have other photos will try to drag them out this weekend. Also Moffats Mustang. A hell of a car. Outran Jane when they both turned up at the drags, as a joke.
The photo by the way is from Australian Motor Racing Annual 1972.
