The Supercar Registry - COPO RS on Ebay

Hi: in 1978 I looked at buying that LS6 Silver Chevelle, instead I purchased a 1969 gold Copo Camaro. These 2 cars raced at Jane and Finch (Toronto). I was told that the Camaro lost because the Chevelle was running slicks.

Silly me... here I am thinking Jane and Finch is a dragstrip. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/no.gif I guess we're talking street race here? Sounds like this is a tough neighborhood! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/shocked.gif

Jane and Finch
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jane and Finch is a neighbourhood in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, centred around the intersection of two arterial roads, Jane Street and Finch Avenue West. The area is roughly bounded by Highway 400 to the west, Black Creek to the east, Sheppard Avenue West to the south, and Shoreham Drive or Steeles Avenue West to the north. The abundance of high-rise apartment towers in this area make it one of Toronto's most densely populated neighbourhoods.
Black Creek Pioneer Village and the main campus of York University are immediately east of the neighbourhood and are northeast of the intersection.
The Jane and Finch area is widely reputed to be Toronto's most dangerous and economically depressed neighbourhood. Long considered to be a "social morass in which violent drug dealers and gang members terrorize low-income families and new immigrants in rundown highrises", the Jane-Finch corridor is also one of Toronto's most culturally diverse areas, home to people from over 80 different countries. Indeed, the Jane and Finch area is a popular residential choice for many new immigrants to Canada because rents tend to be fairly low.
Besides these populations concentrated in the area's apartment buildings and rental townhouses, the area also includes sections of single-family homes, often duplexes, and individually-owned condominium townhouses. These sections are decidedly more upper working class or even middle class, and have historically been identified significantly with a northward extension of Toronto's Italian-Canadian clusters, which have since spread still further north into newer and wealthier suburbs north of Steeles in York Region, notably the city of Vaughan.
