...Pontiac Firebird, sister to the Camaro, is being run by Jerry Titus, a former auto magazine editor and amateur racer, whih turned professional in his early forties. Titus is a very quick driver, and a talented team manager, but his effort has not had the same degree of factory backing that some of the other teams have...
...team. He is very fast in the school bus yellow racer, and has won the first two Trans Am races this year. Not that Jones won without opposition. Donohue ran on his tail at the series opener at Laguna Seca, and Jones' Mustang, Donohue's Javelin, and Leslie's Camaro ran together like a string of boxcars at the May 9th Lime Rock race...
General Motors has brought out its hairy Z/28 Camaro, which is available with front and rear wind "spoilers" that jut from the car body and improve handling at speeds of 100 m.p.h. and up.

...first-half sales climbing from 392,863 to 426,874. Both Buick and Oldsmobile have held their own, but Chevrolet models have proved a mixed bag. Corvair has slipped by about 10,000 units from a poor 17,986 sales last year. So far this year, Chevy II and Camaro have saved the day. Cadillac continues at its phenomenal pace, selling all the models that the division can turn...
