Hot Rod Mag. - What does everyone think of Street Cup?

[smokey]

In the latest issue of Hot Rod it seems they have coined another build style which seems to me to be a variation on the G-Machine movement. I really like that the #72 '69 Torino the guy built will be driven on the street and the track.

What do you all think about that? What are your thoughts on this build style? Attached below is the hyperlink to the article:

Thoughts? thanks all from a newbie to this cool site...

I remember HotRod pushing that style years ago. It's cool, something different I guess. The only problem is finding a track to race them at.

Just like waiting for the Collonade (sp?) cars to come into their own. I still want a 73 Cutlass supreme.

i think its pretty cool. i always (incorrectly i guess) called those cars "trans-am style". either way, they have a lot of character.

I like it.

I've heard very successful man say a number of times that

"you are rewarded for your difference, not your similarity"

That's also how you get in magazines.

i really like this style!!! hope it catches on, almost like a forerunner to the protouring style, that chevelle looks awesome, even if they never get to see a track they would still look cool on the street.

I always liked the NASCAR inspired "street cup" style. I would like to build either a 64 Ford or 80's Monte SS that way..
