No details ..... But a couple of great looking cars!

I heard the CV-1 powered Firebird ran real good in T&T and the turbo GTO from Canada made an 8.90 pass.

It's nice when board member following post the updates.

I've been following.

Rich Guido is winning the stick shift class so far in his 65 GTO. Best of 8.755 at 162. This after driving the car thousands of miles from Canada to the event.
Randy Belahar in his 68 Firebird has ran a 8.58 at 158. This is the CV-1 car. I think he's in the top 5 in his class.
Tyree Smith has been 8.61 at 156 in his 68 Firebird. Pretty sure he still has a Pontiac under the hood.
Nick Wiegand in his 76 TA Boosted Bandit has been 8.60 at 159. He's leading his class. I think it's more of a bracket class.

Just having John in the passenger seat has to be good for a couple mph!

Glad to see Jim back out there!

My idea of a sweet looking ‘67. But not so subtle . . . .



Ya, probably not Pontiac powered huh?
