This 1st one has a 2-speed ST-300 trans. The '64-'66 models didn't come with a 3-speed auto. So, I don't suppose there were too many serious '64-'66 auto trans GTO's in competition.

There were a few competitive Tri-Power GTOs.
Most had a dealership behind them and a lot at stake.
The HP was just flat too high, compared to W-30 Oldses , (bigger cam ,ram air hoses, battery in trunk, etc.)
