Re: R7U - 91 Players Challenge Car at track today
Strange production number stat ... his car is 1 of 23 made. Camaros were 97. So no idea where his 93 is from.
Very cool to see the car used at a track ... back home so to speak.

I did not talk to the owner. Just took the for sale pic for info in case anyone here is interested in contacting him. 608 is a Madison area code.
Car had no visible rust or panel dents.
Yes, cool to see it out and about on the track.

That has always been the plan for my 1988 ... back to the track ... decals and all.

Yes, '89 was the first year that 1LE was part.

Re: R7U - 91 Players Challenge Car at track today
R7U was a marketing package for the Player's Challenge Series. It included 1LE as well as some other specific option for the series. Some of the odd things were power windows and locks. FWIW, Player's series cars made up the bulk of the 1LE cars in the early days.

Re: R7U - 91 Players Challenge Car at track today
I wonder if the seal is still on the motor.

He had to change the injectors and pulled the intake to do so. Not really opened, but not truly sealed. To his credit he was very forthcoming about it and has made no attempts to touch up the paint.
