History channel's full throttle show is doing the 1988 IROC this Wed. I know the guys that host the show suck but the history of the cars development and old footage should be good. just thought I would make sure you all watch it.

That show freakin owned!!!! :hail:

I went on the Full Throttle discussion boards last night to see what people were sayin - and they're all dumbasses! A few people were saying that the red IROC didn't have the 5.7 simpy cause it had t-tops. This coming from a guy who owns three convertibles, and a dude who's a "certified GM mechanic."

http://boards.historychannel.com/for...?forumID=30080

Morons.

I hope they use some more F-bodys in later shows, that would kick ***. Like maybe use the SS or something.

If you're willing to pay $20 for it, contact the history channel and have 'em send you a real copy.

One word for the next show idea: Firebirds!!!
I saw one magazine, think it was DUB covering Midnight Club3 (A MUST own, BTW) and shows one artist conception for the forthcoming returning Camaro. Looks very akin to the first gen 60s incarnation, with some Mustang style 90s/2000 aero-implements
