Default Re: Fletcher/COPO

I know Chevy wants to make money by selling the COPO's, and good for them, but if anyone deserved to get a COPO based on winning races in a Camaro, it's Dan.

Putting one in the winner circle at a/or major event(s) would surely suit GM and Dan is a good bet to do just that.

It's like peanut butter & jam…Fletcher & COPO another combination that would work. But again in a NHRA "Factory Muscle Class" to help promote new car sales and crowd attention...MB.

I'm not sure that Fletcher cares to dial-in race much with EFI. Contrary to the popular belief, they are pretty darn tricky to make them as consistent as carb cars.

I just remember Fletch with the efi firebird several years back and in talking to him, he wasn't a fan of the efi. I'm pretty certain Peter Biondo has also noted in the past (when we could monitor everyones runs through I-card) the consistency advantage of a carb over efi in stock. Another big time racer who chooses to race a carb. But hey, what do I know, maybe someone slipped me some drugs without me knowing.

I have run both, and if the EFI is tuned correctly, there is no difference.
