Re: 2011 Camaro
Thank you Daren starting this topic. This is just what we all need for the off season. I just got back from P.R.I. where the theme just like SEMA is new aftermarket products for the 2010 Camaro and Challenger. It felt like 1970 all over again.
Mustang and Challenger set the precedent with NHRA approval for 50 car minimum combinations, so now it is time for Camaro to go center stage. The new Z-28 is supposedly supercharged like the Cobra Jet Mustang.
The 6.2 engine should compare closely to the Hemi Challenger. I have an idea for another LS engine for something other than A stock depending on the weight of the Camaro. The front wheel drive Monte Carlo SS and Impala SS of 2006-2007 had a 5.3 LS engine rated and factored at 303 hp. This could be a competitive combination for a 50 car minimum type vehicle even if it wasn't showroom available.
Maybe some L-88 Corvette and 427 Camaro big block Chevy racers from the AA and A stock classes would be interested in the "body-in-white" deal for 2010 Camaros. It will be very exciting to see all 3 makes racing again. Fred Lee
