Hhhhhmmmm, wouldn't it be great to go back to the Trans Am days of the late '60s, early '70s? Camaros, Mustangs and Challengers? The good old American Iron Days!! They are building the cars again, so...............

Could you imagine the big three being in a race series where the cars were actually production based vehicles? Win on Sunday,sell 'em on Monday!
Sams right; bring back Trans Am!

I like the look, and would love to see the trans-am series return to the late 60's excitment.

Unfortunately, at a burn rate of 1 billion a month, the big three has to be more concerned with keeping the lights and heat on than getting back into trans-am. As it is they're cutting way back on NASCAR.
