LT-1 Corvettes vs Z-28 Camaros

LateBrakeU2,

That is true than when the Chaparral Camaros started on the grid at Laguna in '70,neither car was able to run front or rear spoilers because of the homoligation rules.I have a SCCA Trans-Am poster that shows Jim Hall running @ Laguna and the cars are just plain UGLY!

I was at Laguna for the Historics and yes,it was a blast to see all 7 Chaparrals run the course,especially the 2J "vacuum car"...that car is NOISY and was quite a beast.It dominated qualifying in the 4 races it ran before it was banned from Can-Am.Jim Hall was very cordial with us and signed all my T-A & Can-Am books along with Vic Elford and Phil Hill.
I know Mark & Linda Mountanos (owners of the '70 Chaparral Camaro & the '70 Jerry Titus Firebird among others)and it was nice to see him win the event.Another good guy,Ken Epsman (owner of the '69 Sunoco Camaro,the '70 Sam Posey Challenger,and the '72 Roy Woods Javelin) among several other historic racecars.We always hang with these guys at the races and they're all great people.
