Exclamation Camaro vs. Vette SB Loop 820
Who ever was in the Red and white Camaro racing the White Vette South bound loop 820..... it didnt look good. Lots of sparks and smoke came out from under the camaro. Look like the tranny fell out! Last I saw the Vette stopped to help him out.

That would be a moser 12 bolt that was in the car. The pinion nut backed out and the yoke came off. It locked the rearend up from the pinion gear moving.
