I thought it was pretty Good.I video taped it,if anyone missed it.They showed Rob doing Burnouts,JJ going away,and Pete Gettin Sticky.I heard Casey's name over the background PA,with him driving the Cutlass.
It was mostly about the GTO for the first 30 minutes,as it did kickoff the Musclecar craze.But all & all I found it fun to watch,with good Vintage Commercial footage,as well as capturing the atmosphere of the craze across the country.

But why the commercial of the '70 Plymouth land barge as a "muscle car?" It was a big 4-door Fury (?) going over the sand dunes. I thought "What the fu___?"

I would have liked to see more old chevy commercials and more of the white and yellow Camaros at the drag strip.

Was that Glasgo in a '70 Le Mans getting the hole shot on a white '69 Camaro?

Yep, Glasgo's "Stock Appearing" Poncho versus Pete's "Certified Stock" ZL-1...I *believe* Pete may have ran him down?

Yes he got the holeshot! I cut a .522 light to his .476..... as in BULB!
John is a pretty good driver. We've had a lot of good races over the years!
