Geeez, ya learn something new every day! One of those pics is the black "Catch 22" 67 Camaro, which was a local C/SM as I remembered, although it is in H/MP in the photo (6 cyl. class). Even more suprising was that another local racer, Keith Winterbottom`s name is on the door. I`ve know Keith for over 20 years, and was unaware that he drove the Camaro, but a quick phone call confirmed that they ran the car with a 6 cylinder briefly in 79 or 80.By the way, Keith is still racing the same 70 Maverick today, that he ran in H/MP back in the 70`s. Still a Weber carbed Ford 6, with a Nash 5 speed and CragerSuper Tricks. He runs it in our local stickshift group, and the car is virtually identical as 35 years ago!!Some great photos there.
