Default A 12

I totally agree !

I can't find it online, but there is a great letter that Tom Hoover wrote to the NHRA in response to them questioning production numbers of A12's. They were implying that they were purpose built race cars that were not available to the public. He sarcastically replied that unlike the 69 ZL1 Camaros which were scarce, they were so busy building and filling retail customer orders that they would only be able to supply production numbers sometime after the 1100th car had rolled off the line.
