Just a couple pics taken at the end of August at Area 27, with all the Camaro 1LE's there.

Nice! Was this a dealership-run track day or a club HPDE/track day?

I went with SpeedFanatics so it's a club open track day.

Area 27 just has a large fleet of Camaro 1LE's that you can rent and drive, anything from a more casual lead-follow day to high-level HPDE.

Really want to try the ZL1 1LE myself.

His name is Normen, he just goes by Nora.

Real talk, is there a single female on the face of the earth that's into Taurus that's not collecting OSAP?

My best rolling potato shot of the year


Engine just stalled mid-turn and wouldn’t restart
Never any tools when you need them haha
Turned out the ignition coil just died.
Slapped on a new coil, cap, and rotor and we good again
Ignition coil looked to be original, managed to last just shy of 315k km

Their more casual experience days aren't too bad IMO, but the HPDE can get a bit expensive. A27 is the biggest track in BC after all.

VIMC's HPDE is $750 or so BYOC while A27's HPDE is $1295 BYOC, but again Area 27 is a bigger track(about twice as long as VIMC per lap) as well so there is that.

But yeah, it's just awesome to drive a Camaro SS 1LE(ask me how I know), and they have both 6-speed and auto available.
