Re: Yenko Deuce Stripe Theory
[ QUOTE ]
I believe that the kid he paid $2.00 an hour to put them on, put them on wrong. Maybe these cars wern't selling real well so he tried something new. There might not be any theory at all. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/scholar.gif[/img]

I think there are way too many similarities (besides the stripe layout) between the basic "package" of the Yenko Deuce vs. the Boss 302. If the Deuces were not built to compete with the 302s they were at least influenced by them. I did know about the larry Shinoda/Don yenko friendship, although I hadn't made the connection. Its also interesting that the Deuces had rear sway bars... not something that drag racers would be too interested in usually, but a definite advantage for a road racer.
