“Grubbworm has made a reputation for itself as a manual and still stands as the quickest H-pattern, clutch assisted trans equipped vehicle on Earth. Hopefully that record will continue to stand for a while.”

The 2-day event was completed despite a forecast that would test the organizers on whether or not to postpone the event. “The weather was definitely on the not ideal side of things,” said Zach Slevin. “But all of these drag and drive peeps said ‘we have street cars and we are going!’”

This 1969 Camaro project had been sitting for a few years, but got back underway in September 2022 with the goal of participating in Rocky Mountain Race Week in 2023.
