Pure Stock Drags Stanton 2014

In the background behind Jimmy Johnsons too fast 69 L88 Corvette you can see most of Peter Simpsons COPO 69 Camaro. It too proved to be too fast just like all three of the L88 Vettes, as the younger Simpson went 11.498 on a 11.499 break out rule while running against Scott Tiemann driving Rick Mahoneys blue Mopar. I'm saying the fast Chevys will have to disconnect the back barrels on their carburetors next year to keep from breaking out. Tis a shame.....

The Biscayne was only out Thursday for Hemmings. Those back rims and tires are not PS.
The Champagne COPO was on her maiden weekend, ended with Ignition issues, but will return with a vengeance, pulled low twelves out of the box:-)

The Champagne COPO is a December of 1968 built car and although it is a very nice looking and fast car I beleive it is a COPO tribute car. It was built several years ago and raced at the FAST and Factory Stock event at Martin. Back then it didn't have stripes and had Rally wheels. Please correct me if this is not the same car.

Normal tech is just a visual inspection of the car for safety items and illegal visual modifications. The heavy tech includes a compression check.

Was that Champagne 69 not a Post Sedan?

You are correct. Original small block car, stripes and wheel change done by present owner.

Great pics. I remember reading about the champagne COPO tribute car on v8buick.com. Pretty sure it is a clone.
