Got my copy in the mail yesterday, nice article. Was that your first car when you turned 16? If so that's pretty cool. Mine was a 70 SS 396 Nova (in 87). Surprised I didn't kill myself in it looking back. A stock 4th gen handles like it's on rails next to that car, lol.

Very nice! I just got it yesterday, and quickly thumbed through it. My Fbody was my first car, bought it when I was 15.

Way to go Tony, congrats again on the record, and another cover! Once again, way to represent the speed density cars! My first vehicle was a 68 Camaro, I was 15 and didn't even have my license yet. Now I'm on my second 93 Z28.
