Plymouth Barracuda Racing in the 60’s

The Trans-Am race series was created in 1966 by the SCCA. Plymouth entered the Barracuda Formula S through Team Star-Fish in this inaugural season. Drivers included Richard Petty, Scott Harvey, Bruce Jennings and Charles Rainville. The Barracuda proved to be formidable in the corners, however, it lost out on the straights to the Mustang.
