Some mid-pack American iron. Leading the charge here is the wild big block Camaro of Craig Carter/David Laughlin, which qualified 19th, but failed to finish. The Corvette is the Bob Baechle/Earl Hurlbut big block monster which also failed to finish after qualifying 29th. It'd be interesting to know what the history of the Camaro was. It looks like it could be an original Trans-Am car from 1970/71, heavily modified to keep pace with the new machinery appearing in IMSA and Trans-Am throughout the mid-1970s. Maybe one of our Trans-Am anoraks could shed some light on this?
