1969 Chevrolet Camaro – Street Fighter

When Tom Bailey purchased Project Sick Seconds from Denny Terzich, he was just looking for a way to speed up the completion of his 2012 racing plans by buying a car that was already set up for street/strip use.
When Tom Bailey purchased Project Sick Seconds from Denny Terzich, he was just looking for a way to speed up the completion of his 2012 racing plans by buying a car that was already set up for street/strip use. Terzich had built the car to run a 6-second average on HOT ROD Drag Week™—that crazy, weeklong, street-to-track, 1,000-mile roadtrip that we use to weed out America’s Fastest Street Cars from America’s Fastest Trailer Queens. Despite Terzich’s good intentions, he never quite made it happen in competition. Sick Seconds did run a 6-second pass in testing, but not on Drag Week™, so Tom was purchasing some heavy expectations along with the lightweight gold Camaro. Racing forums buzzed and bubbled as every deskbound expert weighed in on Tom’s chances. Could he run the numbers? Could he make it through the week? Did anything so streamlined and composite even count as a street car?
