Thanks Darrin.. you're camaro was new so I didn't know anything about it. lol


This is a TOUGH story to do.. there were so many Camaros at the event and we have so many great shots.

I think it might just go to eight pages so I can make sure every camaro gets at least one captioned photo.

Tig Man,
Do you have a build page or a link with some more pics to your car? It has to be the best looking late second gen that I have ever seen. The fact that it is functional on top of that makes it even better. I would love to have a better look at it.

[dropit69]

Steve..love what you do for the hobby..i am gonna change some things for sure on the car to make it more track worthy..and get ride of the street rod steering wheel..lol..car gotta a lot of attention for being a cheap second gen..must have been the color..i love yellow cars..

The Event was an absolute blast. Our track project car wasn't finished so we brought the back up..lol. It made it about 7 laps around gingerman before the muffler completely came apart. Still was a lot of fun for being a stock 40yr old car.

Nowhere else have I been able to see the caliber of musclecars as this event.

BTW, Billy was the man in the suby, too bad it was not a protouring musclecar or he would have taken the prize....lol
Good to see you again Billy, can not wait to see the Nova again.

By far one of the best events I have attended so far. That's saying alot considering it was an inaugural event. Some of the most gracious hosts that you could ask for as well as the event being very well organized and executed.

I'll be back next year for sure, hopefully with the new Camaro I'm working on.
