My father owns a 69 super bee and I was wondering why aren't there more racing? Where have all the b body cars gone?

We sold ours but I plan on getting it back, NOT FOR A RACE CAR THOUGH. To my knowledge they are too heavy and really aren't competitive in any of the classes. It is one of my favorite cars ever!

Why aren't they competitive? Do they have a bad horsepower rating?

Gregory Gay in Division 1 has a C/SA Super Bee. John Leach has a Road Runner also in C/SA I believe and Francois Periard has an A/SA Road Runner. I'm thinking there aren't more because the E-bodies run the same engine combinations, are a bit lighter, and have a shorter wheelbase. It's really cool to see the B-Bodies on the track though !!!

I don't know if this ones a real '69 440 Six Barrel car, but this '69 Road Runner sure does look good...and yes there are still a few of them racing in various classes.
