I won't disagree that the superbirds weren't the best looking car ,but you are a young wiper snapper that's doesnt fully understand what made them what they were. NASCAR is why they existed and they ruled the land when they raced. So much so that they were banned. I guess Chevy cried too much about getting there butt kicked every week. You could buy 7 or 8 ZL1 camaros for the price of one superbird today. So someone must think they're cool. It's statements like you just made that show me that many of you in this forum don't understand the heritage of why we even have cars like the Camaro, Challenger, and Mustang today. I feel bad for you.

In 69 and 70 Chevy had not really gotten back into NASCAR, just a couple teams used them. Ford and Chrysler were in an aero war and NASCAR was tired of them building essentially special Race Cars with them just barely meeting the production requirements to put them on the track. They said they were not STOCK cars..... But that was the beginning of the end for true stock cars...

Explain it to the youngster. I know why superbirds were built. The point was that comparing them to ricers shows how even some of our mods don't even get why GM, Dodge and Ford chose to reproduce these great cars from days gone by. Like them or not, I don't understand how you could be a car guy and run down a superbird.

Looks like something that should be on a speed racer cartoon.....

Where did I run down the super bird?
You stated they were banned from NASCAR because of the Chevy guys complaining. I was explaining the real reason NASCAR outlawed them...

You didn't. I was referring to the post that caused my first reply. Look above

Oh and beleve what you want about the reason for NASCAR banning them. Dodge was kicking everyone's ass. That's why the bird and the hemi got the boot.

I saw that, but when you read your reply to me it reads as though you were saying I thought I was running down the superbird.
