I took the Chevelle down and there was a pretty good turn out... I saw Kody (Slowkray) for a second!! I was talking to a relatively new 5th gen owner at the time. He talked with SSOOCH at the Jordan Landing show, nice guy!

Happy Thursday!

Nothing has changed with the fuel, the change was requiring the sticker notifying that there can be up to 10% ethanol in the fuel must be placed on the pumps.

One of my employees just showed me a video her son put on Photobucket of him in his 1991 Eclipse GSX racing a 2010 Camaro at RMR. This kid's bucket of bolts smoked the Camaro! I couldn't tell if the Camaro was an SS or a V6, but it was red or orange. We need to find out who the Camaro owner is and get them to add another 150 hp and reclaim our honor . I'll try to get a link to the video and post it so the guilty party can fess up, get into rehab, take a driving course and get even!

I hate the thought of living in fear of turboed 4 bangers. I might have to do something rash like add a cam and headers. Jordan, I might as well just put you in my will, because it looks like you're going to get most of my $$$ one way or another (Pedders Xa's coming in 2 weeks!)

The fifth generation Camaro is currently flying off the showroom floors and perspective buyers have a few model choices when it comes to decision time.

There are the LT and LS models with respectable V6 engines or the supped-up SS variant with a crowd-pleasing 6.2-liter V8. However, there is still one Camaro we have all been waiting for, and now GM is saying (again) that we will get it.

During the Frankfurt Motor Show, representatives from General Motors confirmed suspicions of the Camaro Z28 being built and sold sometime in late 2011. Not very convenient considering the Z28 was basically completed earlier this year but was put on hold when GMs financial health dropped to an all-time low.

Well now the great American automaker has climbed from the grips of bankruptcy and the Camaro Z28 project must be finished.

So here are the details we have gathered so far: it will use a 6.2-liter V8, similar to that of the SS version but this one is supercharged. Concrete power numbers are not final yet, but this engine also powers the newest Cadillac CTS-V, where it makes 556 horsepower and 551 pound-feet of torque.

Keep in mind, however, that the Z28 will be almost 300 pounds lighter than the CTS-V, so expect 0 to 60 times under four seconds and a top speed of 193 mph (with the manual transmission). Speaking of gearboxes, the Z28 will most likely be offered only in a full-manual six-speed option (due to the higher cost of the automatic).

The appearance of the 2011 Z28 will not stray far from the pictures that GM released sometime ago. Compared to the current Camaro models, the Z28 will get updated 20-inch wheels that are gunmetal in color and resemble those seen often in Formula One and Rolex car series races.

The Z28 gets a different mesh grille with updated badges and a bigger hood scoop to accommodate the new blown engine. Other body enhancements include a restyled rear bumper cover and a taller lip spoiler.

Expect pricing of the Z28 to exceed current SS models by at least $8,000, but not to grow anywhere near Corvette money. GM would like to keep the Camaro Z28 as its original pony car for the average-income car lover. If the General keeps his word and GM builds this thing, we believe it will become a workhorse and a collectors item for Camaro lovers everywhere.

The Z/28 will be nice but with GMPP announcing that the LS9 Supercharger kit is on sale for the LS3. Who needs a Z/28? After I do my all my planned suspension upgrades with the help of JDP Motorsports and get the supercharger. Goodnight Zed Twenty Eight!
