Please, be introduced – this is one helluva awesome 1973 Camaro pro-tourer owned by Brian Hobaugh.

The rolling chassis was built by Maier Racing. It involves (all by Maier Racing) upper and lower control arms, spindles, link rear suspension. JRI Shocks – coil overs with 4 way adjustable fronts with remote reservoir, 2 way adjustable rear Hyperco coil springs Maier Racing anti-sway bars. Custom dual to single exhaust with Black Widow muffler sings its funeral Mars. The interior – Kirkey road race seats with O2 Creations custom seat covers, Speed Hut gauges and GPS speedometer.

Brian has no limits so he uses 3 sets of wheels (depending on event):
