Did not read all the pages but my car would be the 427 Shelby Cobra or Daytona Coupe. Nothing like the grumble of a big block American V8.
 
No it don't.

CC, the Challenger/Cuda was only good for one thing, going in a straight line. Trans-Am racing had them being tail-end Charlie to the other muscle cars - Pony, Camaro, AMX.
 
Going in a straight line is the only thing any American car is good for

The Challenger was great 8)
Then ill have a Plymouth Superbird thankyou very much....

The 'bird is only good for going roundy-round.

Caddy's do very well in road racing, even beating the Bimmers.
 
What type of racing are we talking about though...on what sort of tracks? 8) On a twisty track such as the Nordschleiffe, a BMW would annilhate a Cadillac...
 
Im with you Krazi Cobra does it for me I know it as a bit(very) arse endy in the handling department but for ooomph
it dont do bad for a thirty eight year old motor

Road Atlanta, Road America, Mid-Ohio, Mosport, Laguna Seca, ..........


trackend, do you know what a 'vette is? (rhetorical question) The Cobra left them in their exhaust fumes.
 
I always thought the corvette was a Tupperware motor
I have to agree with you cheesy about racing though other that drag the lads across the pond just cant cut the mustard when it comes to producing a technically advanced race car that handles
 
From my knowledge (Which when it comes to American tracks isnt much) All of those tracks barring Laguna Seca are fairly open...what models of BMW/Cadillac we talking bout here?

Because a BMW M3 CSL would trash a Cadillac CTS, regardless of the engine in the Caddy...Although the Caddy does look better
