Re: Macgyver racing a 3rd gen camaro
I loved that episode. When you look at the scene of the tampered brake reservoir cap seal car that flips over during the race, you can tell it’s an early model 3rd gen Firebird that they “disguised” to look like a later Trans Am car they were racing. I actually recorded that episode and viewed that scene in slow/stop motion to figure out what model year the car was and what they did to disguise it as the later model version they were racing.
