Some frames from the video...
The video is almost ready... a little dark in a couple spots - but the sound track makes up for it 110%.

hehe, i love the first gen cameros! looks like a built 350 cid block around here... i should say, re-built since that car is a ground up restor, and estimates a conservative 430 hp.
is the video going into the vault, RC?

[RC45]

Not sure where the video is gonna be hosted at the moment... but the sound was intoxicating. It was also the cameramns first time in the right seat of a 12s car.. so what with my deafening exhasut, the SS next to us - and his neck snapping back and forwards he forgot to film sometimes.. :lol: ;)

[gigdy]

that camero is beautiful, cant wait to hear it.

[T-Bird]

That is a nice lookin car 2 very nice looking cars and one Z28 with the older headlights hanging around I see.

[Vansquish]

Nice spotting RC, can't wait to see (and hear) those beasts in action :-)

[TT]

Nice monster :) can't wait for the video too :D

[gis]

We had planned to - however our actions over the previous 3 miles had won us a sheriff that shadowed us for the next couple miles - so no more fun that evening... :)

[gis]

LOL dam cops,still a very good video with nice sound :D

[novass]

Nice vid RC! That car is gorgeous and sounds fantastic. What was up with the Honda or whatever in the beginning tryin to get some? WTF was he thinking vs. that Camaro and your Z06, lol

[ZfrkS62]

I see the Sonic Drive-Ins are a popular hangout for cars in Houston too :wink: Beautiful example of what American ingenuity used to be :D Can't wait for the vid to finish downloading :mrgreen:
Thanks RC!

Notice how the LS6 got a little respect... ;)

"Hey man - that thing is faster than I thought it was."... :lol:

That SS was one of the nicest sounding "almost street cars" I have heard and driven with in a long while.

In the next few weeks a similar setup '67 Chevelle will be up and running..

I want to to do a 454 sandwhich with those 2 ... heheh ;) :P

Well - I cannot think of a more appropriate spot for V8's to hang - than the Drive-Up Hamburger Stand... especially 3 Bowtie V8's... :twisted:

[sameerrao]

Was this at the Sonics place on 290 near the Walmart? I went to a small Ferrari gettogether here many moons ago

Lovely car ... you should have brought your 1:32 version of the Camaro - it would have been a nice mini-me :D

LMAO..i wish it had been that way in Phoenix. the Sonic at 35th Ave and Union Hills was always packed with rice. the Trailer Queen drag Camaros were in the adjacent Walgreens parking lot wating for a cocksure ricer to challenge them..i laughed hysterically when they gat ther oversized mufflers handed to them :lol:

*edit* just watched the vid and D-A-M-N!!!! what beautiful music those two high displacements made together :D you two picked up quite the swarm of Camaros huh?

That entire episode took place down Westheimer at about 7pm.. :lol: - talk about playing with fire.. the place was crawling with cops, as could be seen by the sirens and radar detectors going off and later sheriff that followed us... ;)

[ZfrkS62]

where was your detector hidden at RC? not on the windshield apparently.

good thing no one got busted, we would yet again have to set up collection to help you put pf your legal trouble :wink: what ever happened with GMs goon squad, btw? (not to hijack your thread, but i;m curious as to what happened with that.)

Rardar detector is below the rearview mirror.

And you may see the GM vs RC45 story in print one of these days... ;)

[TransAm]

Same place as mine - under the mirror.

Nice vid RC, of course had I been there I would have shamed you both (j/k obviously)
:lol:

I cant wait to see the Chevelle! We have a "special" :wink: Vette at work ATM. Ill take some photos for you for a little inspiration. I would have loved to see that race in person, now thats a fuckin street race. No fart cannons or blinkin lights, just 2 cars that mean business.

[nurbrun]

Damn thats a nice car. D/ling the video, i cant wait to hear it!!!!!!!
