What about us "poor folks" who have spent probably as much $$$ as a COPO over the last 25+ years campaigning 1967-1969 Camaros? as well as those campaigning 1970-2002 Camaros? We also need Chevrolet to step up to our game!!

From The Block:

Quote: "That’s right, it definitely pays to run Chevrolet Performance parts in drag racing. And, according to the official Chevrolet press release, "Competitors who use Chevrolet Performance parts and display the brand’s decal on their race car are eligible for contingency payouts in many NHRA classes."

“Chevrolet has a long history of supporting NHRA drag racers and our 2014 contingency program rewards sportsman and Pro Stock racers for top performances,” said Jim Campbell, General Motors U.S. Vice President of Performance Vehicles and Motorsports. “When you race with Chevrolet Performance parts and display our decals, you are eligible for a contingency payout that can be reinvested in your race team.”

Does this not apply to you guys?

"Even racers who don’t drive a COPO Camaro can win contingency money. In the NHRA Mellow Yellow Series, racers are eligible for payouts when using a Chevrolet Performance cylinder block or cylinder heads. In fact, they can double up on the payout when running both the block and heads.

In the Pro Stock class, for example, Chevrolet Performance pays $500 for a win and $100 for the runner up if the racer uses a Chevrolet Performance engine block or cylinder heads. That means a winner can collect $1,000 for a win with an engine using the block and heads.

A similar payout schedule of $300 for a win and $100 for runner-up are available for sportsman racers running a Chevrolet Performance block or heads – or $600/$200 for an engine with both the block and heads – in the following categories:

•Competition
•Super Stock
•Stock
•Super Comp
•Super Gas
•Super Street
•Top Sportsman
•Top Dragster.

Racers must display the Chevrolet Performance decal. The previous GM Performance Parts decals are invalid for contingency payouts. Go to nhraracer.com for contingency program details."

Not sure if you are in with it for an event win, worth a try.

And a note of thanks to all us taxpayers that let GM owners under pay for the vehicles while we suffered the loss on US treasury sale of "New GM" stock would be really nice!

Off topic. And dumb.

Chevy paid us one year for older cars. Ford and Chrysler both pay older cars. I guess Chevy feels like they don't have to but it would be nice for those of us who have run their stuff for 30 or 40 years.

What do they consider for Chevy Performance Heads for this.

I inquired with GM about this last year and they said that the bowtie block counted. They sent me stickers.

James, how old a car will they pay for the Bowtie block?

In the case of the bowtie block, I was told that the year lf the vehicle was not relevant. Our Nova is a 1966 Stocker.

Guess I need some stickers. Thanks!
