I got him to allow me to remove the spoilers for a while and made approximately 15-18 passes without the spoilers over three weekends. It's hard to say about the ET, but the MPH was easily .7-1.4 faster. In the end he put the spoilers back on because "he liked the way it looked." ??? I didn't last much longer with that arrangement.
I was at Gainesville around 1985 and looked at your '67 Camaro Stocker and thought it was a very nicely done car.
