Trans-Am Challenge 1971

I found this the other day - a good one about the 71 season (6 races for me).

Google up  "Trans-Am Challenge - mini documentary 1971".

Thank You Robert!  That almost brought a tear to my eye. Wouldn't it be wonderful to see the new Camaros, Mustangs and Challengers in near-stock trim racing each other in a series like that again?  I guess Grand Am is as close as we'll get.

Forgot to mention - some of you will recognize the footage also from St. Jovite where you can see my 67 yellow with black stripes camaro pedalling fast over the turn one till for a few seconds.  Other footage  from Lime Rock and Mid-Ohio was also used.

BTW, there were no max pit speeds in those days.
