About this Awesome Ride....
"Boy oh Boy" do we have a treat for you. We have received several emails here at DragCoverage.com wondering what will be the next Car of the Month. Well, it's worth the wait, because this Reese built 1969 Camaro is Totally AWESOME! The last three "car of the month" awards were awarded to Alabama Outlaw's 1969 Camaro Convertible, Terry and Sandy Crows' 64 Plymouth Savoy, and Jason Enfinger’s 2005 Undercover dragster. Now we have something new and "original" looking for you viewers. While cruising the pits at the Outlaw Racing Street Car Association World Finals, Huntsville, AL, I spotted this beautiful 1969 RS (Rally Sport) Camaro, owned by Darrin Hoyle. Darrin went on to the finals to face Keith Szabo that day, but mother nature came out on top. A few weeks later, he won the Limited Street Shootout at Rockingham Dragway with this quick ride.


This beautiful 1969 RS camaro is powered by a 632 Gene Fulton Engine. It was built by David Reese, Taylorsville, North Carolina. How fast do you think this "Street Car" is capable of running?

If you guessed "5's" 1/8th mile, then you are wrong!


Best E.T. - 4.83 (1/8 Mile)
Best MPH: 151 mph
60ft: 1.18

Although David Reese Race Cars built a major part of this car, Teddy Houser Race Cars completed the car for Darrin Hoyle. Currently, Darrin competes in the Outlaw Racing Street Car Association Limited Street Class and several limited street races across the country. At the ORSCA world finals, Darrin broke the limited street record, running a 4.83 @ 151mph. Greg Oneil and Emily (The Boss) were there to help Doyle make this record setting pass. Congratulations Darrin Hoyle from DragCoverage.com
