1968 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 “Old Reliable”

Super Stock NHRA racing is likely one of the most badass motorsports on the planet, or at least it was back in the 1960s. It was once about as close to stock vehicles as you could possibly get, yet they still screamed down the track.

One of the dominant and most memorable cars of the 1960s was Dave Stickler’s Camaro Z/28 dubbed “Old Reliable.” After it claimed the Stock Car World Championship in the 1968 season, “Old Reliable” was retired and sold.

Etobicoke drag racer set to take on the world

Jerry Mitrovic didn’t exactly research builders or pour over manufacturers when he needed to build a new Outlaw 10.5-inch tire car for the drag-racing wars in Canada and the U.S.

Neither did the Etobicoke resident import the finest minds in the business for motor tech, nor take time off work to visit any of the famous fabrication labs in the U.S.

Mitrovic relied on his own imagination, and with the help of some local experts, his result is a one-of-a-kind 1969 Camaro-based racer. But even that distinction only begins to define a car that really has no comparison.

2012 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 by Redline Motorsports

The 2012 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 is considered the most powerful Camaro in the world, one that comes packed with a 6.2-liter supercharged V8 engine that produces 580 horsepower. On its own, the Camaro ZL1 is already a pretty impressive piece of muscle.

But whereas some may be perfectly happy with its stock configuration, others still seek something more powerful.

Fifth-Gen Camaro R/C Car from HPI Racing

This is what we like to call a no-brainer… it’s a replica Fifth-Gen Camaro R/C electric 1/10th scale racer from HPI Racing. It can do 53-plus miles an hour (which is like 530+ scale MPH), it looks just as cool as the real thing, and it ships to your door pre-painted, pre-assembled, and ready to race.
