It would appear that I should have been more specific about which car had won the award. Dave has been racing the 69 Camaro for several years. It, too, is a very good looking car. Before Dave had the '67 Nova S/S car he had a S/C dragster. Not sure if he still has the dragster or not. I haven't had the opportunity to go into deep conversation with him this year.
If you look at the qualifying list from Vegas, Dave is nearly 9 under with the Nova. Pretty good for the 1st year in the car.
