Lo and behold, My dad's navigator took synthetic but at one point whoever did the oil change (it may have been me i dont remember I was 14) put regular in and at points the engine refused to turn off (literally) such as turning the ignition off and taking the key out and the engine would remain running....
I'm no where near an expert but just curious is this truly bad for the engine?

still holds true IMO, but i bet this didnt happen at break-in?
Ideally, u want to BEGIN break-in with regular oil. but this is not always possible(as will be the Camaro's case, i presume), so ASAP is the best bet.
BUT, you could always switch from Regular to Synthetic afterwards...
im thinkin of TOWing the new Camaro to my place, now that i think about it, then perform the switch
