Good Old Days
It's interesting to note that modern Camaro "tuners" are celebrating that their <span style="font-style: italic">branded</span> new ZL1 Camaros are breaking into the 10s, averaging 10.8 to 11.2 seconds on the quarter-mile. Impressive indeed, but also worth noting is that Joel Rosen ran consistent 11.1s (and set an AHRA record at 11.3s) on 7-inch tires in 1967 in the Baldwin-Motion/Motion Supercar Club/CARS Magazine '67 Camaro. It was powered by a stock L88 with single-four-barrel intake and headers. Granted it didn't have full power and AC, but we did sort it out in traffic on Sunrise Highway before going to the track. Let's hear it for the good old days!
