Biography
---------
America's muscle cars were being driven to extinction thanks to Clintonian environmental regulations. Those few survivors were either tuned to European-style specs or simply imported from across the seas Lizard Auto felt the urge to pull a Dubya on the regulations and launch some good ol' fashioned American muscle back into the market of the new millenium. The 1999 line of models left the "greenies" stumped as to why these automotive 'dinosaurs' - a moniker Lizard actually considered a compliment! - were even street-legal in all 50 states.

The Bonfire served both as Lizard's entry-level model AND a surprising homologation model for the racing Bonfire used in the Ridge Racing League (RRL) for the 1999 season. The only regulations the company felt conformed to were 'safety' regulations as indicated in its flatter front end.
