I went to Stan Hywet Hall fathers day car show in Akron Oh. There were more Corvairs than Camaros. I thought that was interesting!

That's actually very odd but awesome.
So were there 3 Camaros and 4 Corvairs?

There are a good number of show / parade Corvairs... getting them to show up to an AutoX, now that's another story. At our Corvair club AutoX's we almost always have more Cameros (Pro Touring) then Corvairs.
A friend of mine recently told me that the All Chevy show in Van Nuys CA had to create a Corvair category because a bunch were showing up and they kept winning the open category.

Every time I go to a Corsa Convention, I can't believe how many guys auto-x their Greenbriers and Corvair 95s. It's actually a spectacle to see. My old boss Larry Claypool Auto-xing his GB camper. Not crazy but fun to watch.

I love seeing the old corvairs on course. There is a guy in our club who has one. I love giving him a hard time for being unsafe at any speed (Though I am sure he has probably heard that joke more than once)
Since this pic his car has been painted.

In reply to SyntheticBlinkerFluid: 8, yes at least eight. There was suposed to be 350 cars. It looked like it. I also saw a Lincoln Zeypher (v12 flathead) and a Studabaker Hawk.
