Designed to highlight the capability of the new Camaro as a weekend bracket warrior, the Camaro LS7 Concept combines the power of a GM Performance Parts' LS7 crate engine and targeted bolt-on upgrades to deliver the wheels-up spirit of the legendary COPO Camaros.
Made famous by Chevy dealers like Don Yenko and Fred Gibb in the late 1960s, the COPO cars were ordered for one thing: drag racing. They were quickly outfitted after delivery with the requisite tires, safety equipment, and other accessories necessary for competition in popular Stock-class drag racing series.
The LS7 Concept honors the COPO ethos with features such as drag strip-ready rubber on the rear wheels --and unlike many of the stripped-down racers from 40 years ago, this strip-ready competitor serves double duty as a race car and a daily driver.
The LS7 crate engine (part number 17802397) uses a high-performance replacement camshaft from GM Performance Parts (part number 12480033) to help it produce approximately 550 hp. Complementing upgrades include GM Performance Parts-developed headers and air-intake system that will be offered at the Camaro's launch in early 2009. The LS7 also is modified with a wet-sump oiling system; the production engine features a dry-sump system that requires an external oil tank.
Backing the LS7 engine is a production Tremec 6060 six-speed manual with a GM Performance Parts Hurst shifter. Additional drivetrain details include:
Brembo four-wheel disc brake package
Lowered ride height
Custom 20-in. wheels
Driveshaft safety loop
GM Performance Parts exhaust system
The Camaro LS7 concept is painted Victory Red, with matte black accents on the hood and taillamp panel. "LS7" logos are strategically placed and warn those in the know this Camaro means business when the Christmas tree lights count down to green. It's all business on the spartan interior, too, with base trim and few accessories to minimize overall mass for a quicker elapsed time.

For the Scion Tuner Challenge, three well-known speed shops were given a tC and a limited budget and told to trick out the cars however they wanted. They will be judged by the National Custom Car Association and a winner will be declared at SEMA. Fast Eddies Garage in Los Angeles went retro, building the "Neu-Vintage" tC that borrows styling cues from 1930s cars, World War II airplanes and some modern touches. The bare-metal body is covered in rivets and the aircraft theme is carried over inside as well. Under the hood is a race-prepped motor and race-ready suspension. Mark Arcenal and his crew at Fatlace have styled their tC after the Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters racing series cars. They've pulled out the fenders and squared-off the rear end and set up the car to echo the look of the touring car series. Rounding out the competition is John Pangilinan, a long-time Scion owner and customizer. His "Revault tC" sports a custom wide-body kit and an extravagant entertainment system.

In addition to its Nissan GT-R, Toyo Tires is bringing a classic 1931 Studebaker Model 54 sedan that's been chopped, dropped and then lowered a bit more. This road-scrapping ride was built by Frenso, California fabricator Choppin' Block and features an all-new frame, a chopped roof and a revised hood capable of housing the massive Chevrolet 350 engine. An airbag suspension helps to lower and raise the car on a whim, while 18- and 20-in. Centerline Smoothie wheels wrapped in Proxes 4 tires add to the car's flare.

Camaro Dale Earnhardt Jr. Concept
NASCAR star Dale Jr. is fan of vintage Camaros -- he cruises around in a Pro Touring-style '72 Camaro powered by a GM Performance Parts LS crate engine -- and the heritage-inspired design of the 2010 Camaro appeals to him like a checkered flag at Daytona. His vision for the car was channeled to GM's designers and crafted in a multi-color combination of style, capability, and comfort.
They started with a new Camaro SS that uses the standard 6.2L V-8, but modified to use E85. Taking advantage of E85's favorable octane rating, the engine was calibrated to deliver a few extra horsepower, with the exhaust exiting through GM Performance Parts' new headers. It's backed by the SS's available six-speed manual transmission and GM Accessories' short-throw Hurst shifter. Additional performance enhancements include a Brembo brake package and a lowered ride height, giving Dale Jr.'s Camaro a sleeker look to match its road-hugging capability.
A custom gray-over-white paint scheme blends the high-performance drivetrain with serious style. It's accented with an orange stripe separating the gray and white sections. Also generating attention on the exterior is a set of 21-inc., five-spoke wheels inspired by the Camaro Convertible Concept. They feature dark-painted center sections on the spokes that complement the body's gray color. The wheels are wrapped in Pirelli P-Zero ZR-rated performance tires.
Dale Jr. also specified Chevy Accessories' upgraded audio system for the Camaro, which is matched with a Boston Acoustics speaker system, including amps and subwoofers.
Camaro GS Racecar Concept
One of the most iconic cars of the legendary Trans Am road racing series was the distinctive blue-and-yellow Camaro of Mark Donohue. He was a dominant racer in the series and drove his #6 1969 model to the series championship that year.
With the assistance of GM's High Performance Vehicle Operations, North Carolina-based Riley Technologies re-created the look and feel of that standout race car with a tribute that looks, sounds, and drives like it's ready to do battle with its contemporary pony car competitors. In fact, the heritage-inspired racer is more than concept. It is an early prototype for the Grand Am Koni Challenge GS racing class. Racecars like the GS Concept are offered and manufactured by Riley Technologies for the 2009 Grand-Am season.
The GS Concept features the race-ready suspension, reinforced chassis, and drivetrain conform to the specifications required of racecars certified for the series. In fact, this race car has already logged many hours on the racetrack as Riley team members worked to dial-in the chassis and powertrain.
