Very nice photos!
I have not seen one in person, in many years!
I almost forgot what they look like. ;)

:beach:
 
Nice pics thanks for sharing. I'm surprised they can actually hold an event with just the ty and sy that can be big enough!
 
This show was interesting in that, unlike a Buick GN meets, the percentage of very different approaches to set-up was VERY contrasting. At a Buick Turbo GN meet you will see many uses of the same set-up, but at the SY/TY meet I saw very differing set-ups from truck to truck. Everything from just a chip to the very next car having "all the shit". Yes, there were fewer vehicles so yeah the turnout was very varied, which was cool, so as to not get bored. I think the next year will be held somewhere else. I heard they wanted to keep it fresh and move it from city to city.:cheers:
 
The Trans am connection

If you look on the first pic, the "pace truck" has a reversed 78 or so Trans Am out-take was put on the front. Which make me believe that it was a creation of someone's idea of a Typhoon pace truck. Kinda of a neeto.
Does anyone know if that was a real pace truck? Supposedly 1 of 1...
 
These are some great photos!! Thanks for sharing! Don't see them too often, but there were a few of each out on Woodward this week. I never knew that the Typhoon was a Indy Pace Tuck! Cool!
