Now Dr. Seuss, why do I fee like this is the Star-Belly Sneetches discussion?

I know what I've got and I am happy with it. Which was my point. Who would'nt be happy with that vette this thread is about?

Finally, I'll never understand how a Deuce with a LT1 (which was the exact same engine in my 70 Z) is considered a "supercar" and a L78 is not. If the criteria is ET times, than how is the L78 "just" a camaro and the 1980ish Yenko "turbo"Z a "supercar"?

Damn, Guess I was too thin skinned. Should have used a .

Cmon, admit it charley, you're jealous because you don't HAVE a LM1 in your collection!

And, that was a joke!

And some stickers that say "Deuce" do? And as far as the COPO Z's, yes, it is a proven fact that there was a peformance increase in Trans Am racing.
