ands yes!!! that looks like a silver maro' w/ SS stripes.

I hope that GM makes those stripes for the Z like the 1st.
I am still waiting to see the SS because the 60's SS had the stripes on the nose and some had the nose and side.(mid or hockey)

I ought to whack you, boy. Camaros don't drift. Drifting is for ricers. Camaros powerslide like they did long before anyone ever used the word "drift".

In the video, it looked more like it just got a little loose.

THANK YOU!!! I love Dale Jr. and I love Camaro and now I love CNBC!

Now this was a nice surprise! Man that engine sounds like a beast! It's good to see they got Earnhardt, Jr. to give it some track time and give his honest opinions on it.

Thanks Ms. Reeder for sharing this with us!

Thank you Meghan!

I plan on turning in both directions, shifting and using the brakes so Jr's opinon means nothing to me. I am excited to see the whole show however.

Also given how much he get from GM he won't be a reliable critic of the car. My first car was a 69 Camaro so I am in for the 2010 SS and perhaps a 2012 or so Z28.

Haha, he drives a car 180+ mph only inches from other drivers, of course you won't be doing that either. I can't wait to see the show!

You are right, I am sure GM has quite a few driver who can give just as good if not better input than Dale Jr. But there is one big reason why Jr is being used in this documentory; MARKETING. Very few know the other drivers, while everyone knows Dale Jr.
