Camaro's With Turbocharger's Not Gonna Happen Any Time Soon

The upcoming 2015 Ford Mustang will be offering a turbocharged four-cylinder engine with the car. The chief engineer of Chevrolet, Al Oppenheiser, agrees that  although this is currently "the golden era of the pony car...there may be a day when nobody has a V8."

The new Z/28 and it's 7 liter V8 is likely going to built on a smaller and lighter rear-wheel-drive platform for the sixth generation Camaro's. There are also fuel-saving stretchers for the Corvette with it's premium lightweight materials and a seven speed manual.

Saleen SA-30 Series

Saleen is celebrating their racing heritage of 30 years with a limited-production car line called the SA-30. These cars are based on the Mustang, Camaro, and Challenger. Each model will only have 10 cars and the base price is starting at $95,000.

There will be upgraded suspension, brakes and engines, and the Mustang will be the top performer at 625 horsepower. Each car is going to have a custom pearl white hue paint job with black and yellow accents. The white wheels are also covering the yellow brake calipers. The interior is decked out with black leather and white Alcantara on the seats. SA-30 badges are also everywhere.

With the custom cars already made, customers will have even more extensive options to choose from. This includes a rear seat delete option. The best thing of all is the Frost-Touch Glass made by Saleen, and is an option on the SA-30 302 Mustang. It allows the optional glass roof and rear window to be able to switch between transparent to opaque with a push of a button.

S2000 Vs. Camaro In a Close Final During a Quarter Mile

There was $15k on the line for this race between the Honda S2000 and the Camaro, which is really impressive in itself. The Honda is not known for any record breaking overall power, but the amount of horsepower per liter was unheard of in it's price range. This little car can really book it for it's added parts.

The First 2014 COPO Camaro Auction

Chevrolet's COPO program is returning with a fifth generation COPO Camaro collab of race cars. Like the past two years, only 69 of these dragsters will be built for use in the NHRA Stock Eliminator and Super Stock classes.

Customers now have a wider range of engines to pick from. Not only the 7 liter V8 engine, but a supercharged version of the 5.7 V8 introduced this year. While the engine may be altered, the COPO uses racing chassis and suspension components, including independent rear suspension. Every car comes with safety equipment, including an NHRA certified roll cage.

The Camaro also comes with new racing seats, a new wheel design, and an updated graphics package.

The only Camaro that will be painted Ice Blue Metallic has the #1 serial number. It will be auctioned off at Barrett Jackson's annual January event in Scottsdale, Ariz. All proceeds from that car will go to Achilles Freedom Team of Wounded Veterans.

Unsticky Sticker's

Apparently Chevrolet is recalling Camaro's of 2013 and 2014 because of the fact that air bag warning stickers are not staying stuck at all. So if you see that they stickers are falling off, remember that they are being recalled.

Chevy reveals Corvette Cars

It is that time of year again! New cars! New cars! New cars! A special edition Corvette Stingray was unveiled at SEMA to commemorate the game's 15th anniversary. It features a custom blue paint design with graphics, yellow tinted headlights, carbon fiber rear wing and hood, ground effects kit, custom exhaust tips, tow hooks, custom front grille, custom sport seats, racing harnesses.........UUUUUUHHHHHH......, and a flat bottomed steering wheel. The 6.2 LT1 will power the Vette, making 460 hp and 465 pounds of torque with a seven speed automatic transmission.

DANG THATS A LOT OF NEW STUFF!!!

Also from Stingray, is the Convertible Atlantic concept car. One part of a pair, the Atlantic comes in silver, BLADE SILVER; which Chevy said is meant to call to mind a private jet. Carbon Flash Metallic covers the front splitter, rocker extentions, and lower diffuser. There are also chrome 5-spoke wheels, molded splash guards, wheel center caps with Stingray script, custom luggage and embroidered center armrest with the logo. A six speed automatic is included.

WHOOOOO!!

Finally is the second half of the Atlantic concept cars. Chevy is also revealing the Pacific concept, inspired by the West Coast culture. The Torch RED Corvette has the Z51, which includes a dry-sump oiling system, enhanced cooling and braking, electronic limited slip differential in the rear, and 20 inch satin black wheels that will make any machine or girl scream with excitement.

New Changes to the 2014 Chevy Camaro

The new changes that may make you say, DANG, will really make you want new things. The Chevy MyLink interface with a 7-inch touchscreen display has been added in addition to a head-up display system. There is also a more streamlined front that provides improved cooling and better stability at high speeds. Headlights are also slimmer and a vented hood has been added. The rear has similar things like single unit horizontal tail lights.

Redline Motorsports Outfits a 2014 Camaro ZL1 With Twin Turbos

Some customers can be quite picky about what they want in a custom Camaro. This customer however decided that his car wasn't fast enough.

Usually a standard Chevy Camaro that rolls out of the production line has a standard 580 hp. With Redline Motorsports, they come out with a TVS1900 supercharger, which wasn't good enough apparently. To make it work, they removed it and replaced a twin turbo system from IPS Motorsports.

The factory supercharger was removed and an LS3 manifold was put into place. Two Garrett GT35R turbos were added, running at 14 psi each. The owner of the car also wanted to keep the stock auto transmission but wanted a little bit of extra power.

C63 AMG Vs. Camaro SS - AIRPORT

You may be thinking that European's know very little about muscle cars, but they are highly sought after there more. Higher prices, higher gas prices, and much higher insurance prices means they don't sell as much as they would like to. This next drag race is hosted in Germany. This time it's a Camaro SS, up against the C63 AMG (aka the camera car.)

These cars from across the pond are about the closest thing Germany has to muscle cars, even if the vast price difference makes it a bit unfair.

7-Second Second-Generation Camaro on the Street

The second generation Camaro wasn't really what it could have been. Halted by the new emission regulations set by the EPA, the car was mostly for show. But one person brought back a second generation Camaro with an LSX combined with twin turbos that can run a quarter mile in 7 seconds. The video below shows the owner giving details about the work put in that makes this Camaro so fast.

Supercharged Mustang Vs. Big Block Camaro

THIS IS EPIC! MUSTANG VS. CAMARO.

We've seen a ton of videos, but this is one of the better ones, thanks to the extensive modification gone into these cars. The older Camaro has a big block V8 engine that is sure to rev your whole body; while the Mustang is holding a Vortech supercharger on it's smaller V8.

It is a pretty close race and this video comes with a shot of the finish! Let me know what you think of the video.

The 2014 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 has set a lap time of 7:37.47 in damp conditions at the Nurburgring Nordschleife circuit. The high performance American muscle car completed the lap of the 20.8km circuit through Germany's Eifel mountains in a time that puts it ahead of the Ferrari 458 Italia (7:38), 991 Porsche 911 Carrera (7:37,9), and the Lexus LFA (7:38.85). To date, only the Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 and the SRT Viper have set faster times for American cars at the infamous track.

LSX Takes Indy: 2013 Chevrolet Performance LSX Shootout

DRAG RACING SEASON! There is no bigger time than the Chevrolet Performance LSX Shootout! Once a year, drag racers from all around the country descend to the Lucas Oil Raceway at the end of the LSX Challenge Series.

From October 10th to the 13th.

Run under the National Muscle Car Association (NMCA), the LSX Challenge Series is a set of four events run through the calendar, comprised of five classes; Drag Radial, Real Street, All Motor, Rumble, and 5th Generation Camaro Challenge. The 2013 season was an interesting one. Despite the less than ideal conditions, the event in Atlanta saw excessive heat, but the racing has still been great.

Drag Radial points leaders Mike Brown and Anthony Manna were separated by 0.011 seconds going into round 1, and will see each other in the final round in Indy.

Brown, along with teammate Mark Koehler, started this year with twin-turbo setups, which propelled the two to, 7.074 at 209.04 mph and 7.078 at 208.94 mph.

There was a lot to look forward to at this year's Chevrolet Performance LSX Shootout. It took place at Lucas Oil Raceway in Indianapolis. The event is the most established and biggest LSX-only racing event in the country. If you couldn't make it, you can find coverage on The Block!

CD's Being Removed from cars.

The compact disk player has begun it's long downward spiral for the past couple of years. Things like thumb drives, ipods, and streaming technologies have taken the 2014 cars by storm. A few vehicles, the Cadillac, the Tesla Model S, and the Smart car, are a few companys that have decided to ditch the bulky box slot.

CD slots are being taken as options for new cars, and are where we usually hide tissues and parking meter change. If you order the optional CD in the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee, or the Cadillac with the CUE system, it loses its prominent position on the dash and gets banished to the armrest or glove compartment.

The Mazda3 slot is moved way down to the center console level.

Of course we know why it's obvious, mountains of CD's accumulated over the years by owners who don't want to see their collection sent to the electric trash bin. Ipods and smartphones are evenly tied with CD players in usage. They are already using the space it occupies for larger center stacked screens. The future is here, and we aren't slowing down.

Thanks to the many supporters of new tiny compact cars, Chevrolet made it's most successful one yet as the Sonic rolls off of assembly lines into the public.
