Oh...and to start off our very first Camarofest ever, we had to Chally's open our event for us going down the track in their kenne bell powered Challengers. They were both in the 10's and 11's. It was something else to see! I hope we get a good variety out there. The more, the merrier.

Well..........If I had a two car enclosed trailer, I could make it more affordable for you east coasters ect.to have your car transported out here to Phoenix. For anyone interested, I do have my covered single car race trailer available for transport.

This year's event will be a full 2 day event, complete with a car show, drag racing, and autocrossing (subject to change). Of course there will also be a vendor alley for your shopping and modding needs.

We are hoping for even better attendance than the already impressive turnout at the first Camaro5Fest, so we hope to see as many of you as possible! We're confident that the 2011 event will be as memorable (if not more) an experience as the first Camaro5Fest.

Many of you are probably ecstatic with the location, while others may not be. Phoenix was a location which we felt was within reasonable distance for both west coast and central region members. We realize that many of you from other parts of the country will not be able to attend, but we have chosen to hold Camaro5Fest in alternate regions every year in order to allow everyone in the country (and Canada) a shot at attending. Next year's location will likely be easier for the northern and midwestern parts of the US to get to (nothing is set yet however). As for holding multiple Camaro5Fest events a year in different regions - it was discussed, but the logistics and planning periods needed for multiple events made this possibility impossible.

*NOTE: All other details regarding the event (itinerary, hotels, sponsorships) will be forthcoming in the next weeks and months, so stay tuned to our homepage and the Camaro5Fest subforum.

Question...Is there going to be a section at CamFest II where just our men and women in uniform can park their rides? It would be nice to have a special place to honor all of the men and women in uniform and do it up right. I know most of them are pretty humble but wouldnt it be nice to have them together in a group shot? God bless you wonderful soldiers! If it werent for you... no telling what we would be driving or riding on (camels?).

I think we can make that work.

Mine as well.... Awesome idea...

Great idea. Any time we can honor these guys we should seize the moment....as this would be a small token of recognition.

Lots of us servicemembers wanna come to C5 fest, but will be deployed. Maybe you could do a poll and see how many C5 members are deployed during C5Fest and "plant" a flag in the designated military area for each of the deployed C5 members? Or maybe just a poster or something listing everyone's screen names? Just a thought....

making plans for this event, what is the cost for car entrance, if any?

There is an entry fee. we are getting ready to announce the schedule and prices in the next couple days.

We expect the entry fee to be about what it was last year... so for this year it will $100.00 for drivers and $20 per spectator as this is a two day event instead of one day like C5FI.

This May change a little bit as this facility is a little more expensive than where we had C5F I.

But we're trying to keep the fees the same.
