No biggie...as long as you enjoy it and love doing the mods it does not have to be a daily driver for you. I pretty much use mine very similar....shows, and racing...and now only race when it counts not just for the fun of it on test and tune days.Its pointless to just drive it around cause you got nothing to prove to anyone but yourself.

DRIVE that Motherf*&ker!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.............

Dude get over it. Its a car and made to enjoy. I've had show vehicles in the past and they sat till the next show to get trailored there and back. Once shot for a feature I'd sell it never really getting to enjoy it. For what ? Drive it and have fun !! There is no point in haveing a nice car if no one ever gets to see it.

Oh sure..All the daily drivers try and guilt him into running it for no reason..lol
There is absolutely nothing wrong with a garage queen...He never said it was a trailer queen. Its nice to see a car that is spotless and showroom fresh at a show. And unless you have 8 hours before every show to restore it...it is obvious that it is driven all the time. Plus no reason to blow it up until he does the internals or fuel delivery to match the blower...Everyone enjoys living the Camaro Life different and no one should guilt them into anything else. Believe me when I say mine is not just a garage queen...I got the rubber on the inside of the wheel wells to prove it...but it has yet to sit in a parking lot waiting for groceries.
