IIRC,, there was a race series back then,, Women's IROC challenge or some such thing,,, Old and just don't feel like my Google fu is in today,,,
It was a companion race to the PRO IROC series.. (Camaro's) Wonder if they did firebirds just to double pump the GM flag at the races?

...The way it was put to me is 14 were actually titled and the rest went straight to the track....??? Car is 99.99% original and unmolested....When the weather dries out will pull it out of the garage and take some updated detailed pics......

A genuine article, of real SLP vintage, sure. But if you're willing to settle for a trendy pretender, perhaps not the unicorn, rather a donkey with a party hat, spin tech remakes it. I put one on my GTA because I think a lot of us old 4th gen F-body guys have a certain affinity for that exhaust.
