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.

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.

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!
