I`m not sure but I think it must be a V8

it does sound strange ...!

[sportscarsmovies]

What kind of engine in the old Camaro #43 ?

Doesn't sound as a V8 . Thanks

[SpenAgain]

@sportscarsmovies I checked the car specs, it was driven by Jerry Hibbert and Malcolm Prior, had a 5.7 Chevy mouse motor, and was a former IROC series car.

[LarryLinton]

Many thanks. =)

Hi yes I have more and I will post them

when I have time to edit them .

[LarryLinton]

Thanks for this ;), Was there that day.

Do you have any more?

[SpenAgain]

@LarryLinton You had a problem with the left front wheel not wanting to be friends anymore. Several teams had problems with wheels or tyres at this round, you can see the missing airdam on the Carlton after it had an off whean a front tyre went bad.

[LarryLinton]

@SpenAgain Thats right Spen . Youve got a good memory. The left front strut broke and we lost the front wheel going into the hairpin . Happened in practice hence our absence in the race.
