2010 Yenko Camaro sketched before SEMA


2010 Yenko Camaro sketched before SEMA

Stop the presses, there will be another Chevrolet Camaro at the world’s greatest aftermarket car show, SEMA. However this won’t be any ordinary pony car. This bow tie creation will come from General Marketing Capital Incorporated and pay homage to the great Don Yenko. If you aren’t exactly sure as to who this mysterious man is, you should know that it is because of Don Yenko that you could buy a 1966 Chevrolet Camaro with a high output 427 cubic inch V8 right off the showroom floor. The 2010 Yenko Camaro Prototype is built on the modern day Camaro SS platform with its 6.2 Liter fuel injected LS3 that puts out a total of 430 HP from the factory, but in true Yenko fashion, this one will be powered by a 600 HP high performance supercharged and intercooled LS motor mated to a Tremec six speed manual.

The Yenko Camaro promises to be more than a go fast package in a stock looking boy. The 2010 Camaro will feature the signature Yenko Super Car stripe package, a set of retro 22 inch Yenko billet aluminum wheels and a few official emblems to set this car apart from from ordinary pony cars. The interior of the 2010 Yenko will feature leather seating with the SYC logos embroidered into the headrests as well as Yenko Super Car sill plates and embroidered floor mats. GMCI claims that they are only in the Phase I of the Yenko’s performance upgrades and will soon be offering Phase II and III stages that will not only increase power, but the handling as well.

Tjin Edition Camaro SS coming to SEMA


Tjin Edition Camaro SS coming to SEMA

We here at TopSpeed are pretty familiar with Tjin’s work. Last year at SEMA he brought two customized cars: a Honda Fit and a Pontiac G8. This year he got even more ambition and focused his attention of a 2010 Camaro SS.

Built in conjunction with General Motors and Real AutoWorks, the Tjin Edition Camaro SS comes with a two-tone paint scheme: metallic green combined with matte dark green, a vented hood and lip spoiler from Revolution Styling and LED lighting from LightWurkz and Ignited HID. Tjin also created a one-off set of 22” and 24” iForged Seneka wheels finished with carbon fiber barrels, brushed faces and black bolts.

The LS3 engine has also been modified: there is a Vortech supercharger, JE Pistons components, American Racing headers, MagnaFlow exhaust and a Nitrous Express direct port setup.





2010 Camaro SS to sell in Australia for over $120K


2010 Camaro SS to sell in Australia for over $120K

The 2010 Camaro SS has made its way to Australia, although if you’re thinking of getting yourself one, you might want to check your bank statements first.

Performax International, a Queensland-based importer of US vehicles, recently announced the upcoming launch of an RHD Camaro in the Australian market. But before our Aussie friends can rejoice over the prospect of driving a Camaro, they should be informed that the going price for the 6.2-liter V8 Camaro SS comes at around $139,000 AUD – that’s $128,000 USD.

If you must know, the exact same model of the Camaro SS sells in the US at just $33,745 USD, which, if you’re astute in math, is one-fourth of the selling price in Australia. We don’t exactly know as to why Performax is selling their Camaro’s at such an inflated price – actually, inflated seems to be an understatement – but according to them, orders have been coming in droves already.

In an effort to justify their position, Nicholas Vandenberg, Performax’s GM said, "For something that will be an absolute standout on Australian roads - and drive as good as it looks - it’s great value for money."

While he does have a point about the Camaro standing out in Australia, we still can’t fathom why they’re selling the car at such an exaggerated price, especially when you consider that the HSV Clubsport R8, a high-performance version of the Holden Commodore that compares to the Camaro in terms of performance sells for half the price tag - $65,990 AUD - of the American muscle car.




Hendrick Motorsports 25th Anniversary Camaro


Hendrick Motorsports 25th Anniversary Camaro

There are so many customized Camaros stampeding their way into SEMA that we have lost count as to exactly how many, however this limited edition example has been designed by the NASCAR specialists at Hendrick Motorsports and they only plan on producing 25 of them for the pony car’s 25th anniversary. Priced at $76,181 the Hendrick Camaros are sure to live up to the hype, after all they will be put together by the coach builders at Callaway Cars. If you aren’t familiar with the name, then you might want to look into the Callaway C16.

The 25th Anniversary Camaro SS will deliver a maximum output of 582 HP, up from a standard 426 HP, thanks to Callaway’s Eaton TVS series supercharger, a high flow air filter, low restriction exhaust and an engine tune to make it all work together. The Callaway built, Hendrick badged Chevrolet Camaro will sprint from 0 to 60 MPH in only 3.9 seconds and run the quarter mile in just 11.89 seconds at 120.1 MPH. Besides the engine upgrades the special edition Camaro SS will also benefit from a carbon fiber front splitter, rear spoiler, rear diffuser and a set of stylish rocker panels to round out the exterior makeover.




Hallett/Car FX Mustang flips over after hitting tire wall


Hallett/Car FX Mustang flips over after hitting tire wall

This is such a waste of a perfectly good Ford Mustang – and one that was even featured in the cover of 5.0 Mustang at that.

We’re talking about the Hallett/Car FX project Mustang and whatever status symbol it had within the Mustang community all came flipping over just this weekend.

The said Mustang, which was racing at the Hallet Circuit in Oklahoma a few days ago, met a sudden and untimely demise after the driver lost control of the car, hitting a tire wall in the process. The brief – and violent - encounter with the tire wall was all it took for the Mustang to hit its nose into the ground and flipping over in dramatic fashion.

Miraculously, the driver and the passenger of the car came out of their unexpected thrill ride with just a couple of minor scrapes. Unfortunately, the Mustang wasn’t as lucky after its roof was completely pancaked as a result of its unexpected tire wall cartwheel.

Just goes to show that even the most celebrated vehicles out there aren’t invincible, and the proof of that lies in the flattened state of the ‘cover boy’ Mustang.
