I came across a letter that was sent to a friend of mine from Motion/Joel Rosen in 1968. This is a copy....he kept the original.

Kurt











Here is the Motion Patch that he received when he joined the Motion Club.

very cool x 2!

I am sure his letter was in response to a letter written to him as I can't imagine anyone telling a prospective customer &quot;You Lose.&quot;

Regardless, it was also nice of him to let him in on a tuning secret about the jet sizes and locations, timing, etc.

Seems like it may have been a friendly wager on what a customer though was a price for a 396 camaro or what the specs were etc... thus you lose the 396 is cheaper or less hp.
