I saw all these guys race in 1969 at MIS back when it still had the road course. Our neighbor next-door raced SCCA locally with his Chevy Corvair, and was able to acquire free tickets for the race. Several of the neighbors came along. It was really a great experience as we got to walk the pits pre race, and actually talk to some of the drivers. I grew up in a north metro Detroit neighborhood where my dad, and almost every neighbor work for either the Big Three, or one of the contract engineering automotive support companies. I grew up with gasoline in my veins, so that first time experience of real professional auto racing was automotive Nirvana.

Yeah bring back classes pre-70's where the cars are mostly stock and it's not all about driver drama. That's what killed NASCAR for me. I loved the factory rivalries in the day but later I really couldn't give a rip about drivers spouting off about each other. And also in Trans-Am the cars just got farther and farther from stock as well. By the 80's I think they were tube frame funny cars with facsimile bodywork hung on.

NASCAR Turned into I.R.O.C. Racing all identical cars same H.P. same body lines . Even though they say FORD ,CHEVY , DODGE TOYOTA..They all are the SAME 🚗

Watch the race and notice whatever other racing you like is not better

It would get owned by the Mustang and especially the Camaro.

JackOfAllTrades, Hellcat cars are only good in straight line racing. They suck on all road course tracks.

@@brgable Once Penske/Donahue could no longer cheat, they couldn't touch the Boss 302 Mustang with their Z/28 Camaro.
