Joe, there is also a car that runs as an 85 Camaro that you once drove. It has been claimed as an "85 camaro" It has a flat hood. No louvers but it does have ground effects. It has also has given the combo horsepower over the years. You know the car. It really is a 90 body style. They let it go. AS usually d1.

Can someone just give Rick Campbell some sort of badge so he feels part of it. Move him up in life instead of the mall cop status .

Who cares dude about a hood. RELAX rick.

If NHRA is going to focus on hoods, there is a lot to look at out there.
Maybe they should study the HP ratings this much, LOL.

FYI, a cowl hood came standard on all 1969 302/Z28, Convertable Pace Cars, and 427/ZL1 Camaro's; however it was an option on the build sheet for every model in '69. You would have had to special order it but it was "available". The question then becomes does NHRA look at standard or optional trim on all cars for the HP guidelines, personally I dont care; however make your decision NHRA and stick with it.
