I thought that everyone should know that the first "stocker" to cover a quarter mile in in under 9 seconds(without altitude adjustment) was a Camaro! NHRA legal "A" Stock Automatic car (427 ci). The car was probably not originally a real COPO Camaro but here are the stats: Bobby DeArmond, owner/driver, 1969 Chevrolet Camaro 427/auto, May 6th 2001 at Mission Dragway in BC Canada. THE CAR RAN A 9.997 SECOND RUN! I thought that everyone would enjoy getting this info.
If you type in this address you will see Steve Calabro "launching" Focino/Calabro A/SA Camaro at Englishtown NJ.
