Third-Gen Camaros Rule And This Road Race Example Is Nearly Perfect


Third-Gen Camaros Rule And This Road Race Example Is Nearly Perfect

We say nearly, because perfection would mean we were able to get a title for it and register this sucker so we could listen to people whine about what is and is not a street car. Oh, and because we would also switch the naturally aspirated engine out for a turbo LS combo for street car events. You know, because boost rules and we’d make well over 1000 horsepower with just one Precision 76 mm. At the tires.

And speaking of tires, this sucker has got some hips on it so that big slicks, or giant Falken Azenis 615’s will fit on all four corners. And the car also comes with templates, molds, and all the details needed for any body repair or replacement, or should you choose to build a new one as well. Overall we’re in love with this thing because it just looks and feels right. It has actual IMSA and Trans Am racing history from 1988 and 1989 which makes it super cool as well.

There are all kinds of specs on the car below, but know that this is a bad ass race car. One that will look awesome and treat you right, if you have the scratch to make it happen. We wish we did.

    Third-gen Camaros rule???? REALLY??!! RIding by trailer parks must be like going to a car show for you, huh? Just messing with ya….

  2. Big Sky Dreamer

    a LS? why?! because it’s a fashion trend? this thing would be a whole lotta fun just the way it is – it’s already sorted & dialed in – I’m lazy in my old age & turn-key stuff appeals to me – I guess if I had money falling out of my pie exit, it would be different……
