Default Re: What class would a 66 427/425 Biscayne have run in

I don't remember ever seeing any '66 L-72 big cars running in "A". If they did fit into there, I don't think they were competetive and the owner would drop to "B" where they were. Like mentioned earlier, Billy Ilykowski's(sic) was probably the most well known one (B) in the country. I tell 'ya, those L-72 cars were absolute terrors. I've heard other stories of these cars ripping out their rear control arms also. Changing subject slightly, now I know people worship '67 435 HP Corvettes like the Shroud of Turin, but if you'd line one up in a race with a '66 427/425 HP Corvette, my money's on the '66 L-72 'Vette!
