If any of you really think that plastic picked that car up, I have spinner hub caps to sell ya.. and once last thing. Ron and others work hard to go fast. I have been and Index runner in may life. I have worked on my car for the last 27 years. and I may live long enough to go that fast, I hope. thanks

Not many people know about that story. It actually said Camaro 2.8 on the back bumper and he would not let me call it a Berlinetta unless I showed him something on the car that said Berlinetta. I couldn't find anything and got stuck running k/sa against Brandon Wood and Jim Parker. When I pulled into the lanes with 80 pounds of ice on my intake Jim Parker started calling me the "Ice Man". Then Woods found out what ice did to my car. When I got home and changed the front plate it said Berlinetta/ Camaro under it. Bruce always liked top tell me I was in the wrong class. Someone had to.

Keith, I remember that trip well, you came to staging with the hood up because there was so much ice on the engine that it wouldn't close. That's only been 15 or so years ago, 2001 if I remember correctly.

So. Did the firebirds get the horsepower also or only the Camaros?
