I think 39 GTOs were made. Saw some show recently and a guy was racing one. Says his insurance doesn’t cover racing. 50 million dollar car and racing it without insurance. !

That’s awesome you get to see them in action. I’d love to go to that Monterey car week one year. Just need the $$....

In the last twelve years I have only missed the Historics/Motorsports reunion once - one of the perks of being a volunteer race worker with SCCA. :) Along with the GTO’s I mentioned, this past year we had race groups featuring Can-Am and Formula One cars, and there is almost always a group featuring vintage Trans-Am.

But back to the GTO - one car I see at vintage race events here pretty often belongs to a fellow here in the Bay Area. I saw it running at Monterey this year, and after looking closely at it for a few laps I realized it was the same car as the one I had selected as the wallpaper on my computer at work!
