Ya know, I've spent years (literally) trying to teach Racers how to race with junk for junk (literal junk for a purse that is junk) and the only thing that I can ASSume is that an awful lot of Racers have a terrible ego problem or they need to get new accountants!

Billy. I just didn't want to drive a race car that was slower than my High School street driven car. Heck I was driving an L-88 69 camaro to high school and running 11.80's on weekends in 1973. What fun would it have been to "race" something slower. My wife put her foot down and said "nothing faster than mid 9's". The reason being when we grew up bracket racing she noticed every time a car, or a pair of cars went tumbling down the track they were usually faster than her recommendations. My choices were all about thrill, and rules from the rules committee. LOL

Jeff, I can appreciate you racing whatever you choose to race. BUT, ya know what the coolest/craziest/strangest thing about S/SS racing is? "Fast" is relative to your index.
OBTW, my high school ride was a very fast 57 Chevy and I'd have gone for a hundred against your Camaro.
