This is how it was listed back in 1984--Enter Super Stock GT, a new class for 1984.
Designed for 1980 and newer factory-production two-door sedans and convertibles, the new GT classes offer the racer an opportunity to slide his body into something brand new bodywise ... but familiar enginewise.

I disagree that if I run GT with my 67 Camaro, I have to claim the heaviest shipping weight offered in a 67 Camaro. Now how is that fair when you are going to be running a Cobalt at 2670 and the lightest I can weigh is 3130!!! Explain that one to me! Why does an older car have a disadvantaged when it comes to shipping weights?
