Allen your also in the enviable position of not having made the decision on
what car to run... or what to do with your interests in Racing on the
salt....

Most of us have race cars or work on cars that have been established in the
sport for some time.

It's easy to look around the shop and see what is there and what's
available to run out there... and the Camaro may seem a likely
candidate.... BUT is it the Best car for your Purpose?  What the 130-150
club's will do is give you an opportunity to evaluate the sport from a
reasonable perspective and evaluate what the Best body or Style of car you
want to run.... it will also allow you to establish some Goals or things
you want to achieve.  

In my honest opinion the Camaro isn't the worst car to run and if the
Nostalgia category includes this body style I think it will be a
competitive car long term..... But without the Nostalgia category this
might not be the Body style of choice...

I hope your jumping in and wetting your feet has shown others that a short
introduction and a series of questions is a Blast..

Here is my website based on the same body style Camaro.

I just updated a few things on it to include the recent Chevy Hi Article on
the car..

Keith ( ahhh No Dan I didn't come up with any thing as clever... but I like
reading your reminder bout the FOOT )
