My favourite drivers back in the day were …
Hans-Joachim Stuck and Frank Biela.
Z28 !…
The legendary Z28 where it belongs, just waiting for the race to start before pounding round the circuit, if only you could hear and feel the noise, epic ! ...
That's a '70.5 Z-28 . . .
. . . powered by an LT-1 350. I saw a '69 Z-28 302 yesterday on the 118 Freeway - silver with black stripes. Driver was my age, reliving his teenage dreams. ;-)
The '69 -Z-28 small block 302...
I believe these original Z28s had duel quads and are the most desirable; Yes?
Not originally, Miki. There might've been TRACO 302s with cross-ram Holleys . . .
. . . back in the day but those would've been either dealer or customer installations. Pretty sure the original 302 was fed by a 780 cfm Holley. Now, ask me a Mopar question and I'll have a more definitive answer for you.
Actually, you're right! Just did a little research and sure enough . . .
. . . there were authorized dealer-installed dual quads, most likely on Edelbrock cross-ram manifolds. You know your Chevys, pal!
Can only imagine…
Saw another legendary (at least in Germany) V8 racer driven in anger the other day and both the pace and noise were simply glorious 👌🏻 ...
After the Audi V8s left…
DTM was never the same. The Alfa 155 and Opel Calibra were fast but nothing again so epic 🤷🏻♂️
