Last time there was 2 camaros, and only 1 5th gen. It was sad. Where are all the fast AZ 5th gens? Next 1/2 mile is March 7th. Would love to see more 5th gens out there running.

I'd love to come out and race, but there is too much snow outside to get my car out.
And I would have to take a week off work to get there.
Last time I did 148mph in the 1/2 mile at our Canadian event. And still in 4th gear.
You guys should get out and try this.
You will love it!!!!

Only 5th gen last time was JonZL1 in his modded ZL1. I believe he did 153mph or around there. There was a really fast 1300+hp turbo 4th gen camaro that should be back out. Other than that, just a bunch of GTRs, Ferraris, Bugattis, Lambos, McClarens, Porches, etc.

Please do. Even watching/riding is a ton of fun. Where else can you ride in some badass cars doing 180+mph.

Just disappointed at the Camaro turn out last time. There were as many Bugatti Veyrons as there were 5th gen Camaros.

I am planning on going this time. Rain scared me off last time. I wouldn't consider my Camaro fast, but I'm curious what it'll do and it looks like a blast.

Unreal · 01-12-2015, 03:02 PM

How much power does it make? 580rwhp zl1 did 152mph for reference. 620rwhp GT500 was low 150s too.

SR71 · 01-12-2015, 06:53 PM

I haven't had a dyno yet but still NA so not pushing ZL1 numbers.

376LS3 · 01-12-2015, 09:07 PM

Do we have to register or do we just show up?

Unreal · 01-13-2015, 08:09 AM

Have to register, not sure when that opens, will have to look it up. Last one sold out, and judging by how popular it was and this being only 1 day this time I bet it sells out fast. If you just want to watch you just show up, but for people racing better sign up quick once it opens.

Looked it up, January 24th registration goes live.

Nick, where do they hold this event at? Close to PHX at all?

Thanks,
Ivan

I had registered for the event but my sisters wedding took precedence as it was held on the same weekend. I will make it out for this next event for sure, Not the fastest 5th Gen but should been fun to see what this tank does when I stretch its legs.

376LS3 · 01-14-2015, 03:56 PM

I guarantee you're a shit ton faster than me!!
