Glen, you should have never posted that web site..... If Dick
clicks on Between the Lights (V=D/T) your timing secrets are
out! (and I thought you used a sundial) Seriously Dick, if
your Camaro is street legal, and you have a roll bar (a cheap
& easy install) USFRA will let you run up to 160 mph with much
less safety equipment. See their web page for 150 Club
http://www.saltflats.com/ This is about as much fun as you can
have with a street car!!
