Favorite Camaro5Fest Moment
Let's share a few stories..............I'm Irish, it's what we do.....among other things
Here's mine Aqua Blue Camaro with tinted windows approaches drag strip. Starter waves 2 cars forward to stage Aqua Blue Camaro guns it.......past starter.....past tree......all the way to the finish. Crowd in the stands is laughing and bemused. We watched another couple of races and walk towards the vendor tents. Aqua Blue is back at the end of the line to race again. Window is down so I go over to 'splain a few things. Inside is a nice 50+ lady with two tiny dogs on her lap and their paws on the steering wheel...................I shook my head, wished her good luck and moved on

I thought the track was making sure there were no loose things running around in the cars!!
My favorite moment was puttin my car in front of ARH's truck at their request Thanks Nick @ ARH for the opportunity and the amazing headers that you guys built! I was complimented the entire weekend.

Favorite Moment(s) - meeting all of the Camaro 5 Members in person.
Wildest Moment - running redlights, going 85 in a 55 and being told by the 3 police following me with their lights on to go faster... Last edited by speedster; 04-19-2010 at 12:21 PM. |

Another favorite moment was when the Z06 got burned by one of the SS. I don't know who it was, but the SS put down 12.1 sec to the Z06's 12.5.

One of the best is when PQ thought his name was Shunt and climbed in Ivan's trunk.
The guy in the blue shirt is me. |

I have two best memories....
1. Watching the video of my two young boys going crazy when I won my first drag race! 2. On Friday night we drove around the town in a huge convoy. We were driving our Transformer Edition when I looked in my rearview mirror and saw the car that had the front end and hood of the "Real Bumblebee". It was so cool seeing that and my kids loved it. My the way...The black Decepticon camaro just had to pass us during the cruise.
