There has never been a more hard-fought race series than the Trans Am races of the late ‘60s and early ‘70s, featuring history’s greatest racing legends such as Donohue, Posey, Follmer, Jones, and Titus. It pitted the pony cars of the day – Mustangs, Camaros, Trans Ams, Javelins and more – in fender-to-fender racing. With strict displacement and weight rules, the cars were evenly matched.
