Shawn, I agree with you 100%! I'm the proud owner of a 2004 Chevy Colorado (tow vehicle), and a 1986 Chevy Cavalier Z24 (DF/S racer for the last 16yrs, and the last 12 with my Stock Eliminator rebuild!!!).

The race cars that got me well known in Colorado, and now Arizona include:

1976 Chevy Vega: 1977 King of the Hill HS Champion
5 bracket race victories from 6 final rounds at a former east Denver AHRA track
1979 Div. V Street Eliminator Semifinal

1973 Pontiac Ventura: 1981 Div. V Street Eliminator Champion
2nd place points finish at Bandimere Speedway 1981 (Street Eliminator)
1982 ET Finals Jackpot Winner
6th place points finish at Bandimere Speedway 1982 (Street Eliminator)

1985 Chevy Celebrity: 1990 High School Reunion Champion (at Bandimere Speedway)

1986 Chevy Cavalier Z24: 1998 & 1999 3rd rnd at Mopar Mile High Nationals
2002 King of the Track Winner, Pueblo Motorsports Park
2006 Quarter finals at Mopar Mile High Nationals
2007 LODRS quarter-finals at Div. VII race #2 Tucson, Az.
2007 Semi-finals @ Stock/Super Stock race @ Speedworld
2008 1/8 finals (4rnds) @ LODRS div VII race #1
