FWIW - Sean at Top Gear Motorsports did my cam, headers, etc. install. Great work and no problems. Drove 3 1/2 hours each way to get the work done.

Midway Chevy in north Phoenix has been building a lot of Camaro's over the last year, go to the Pavillions on Sat. nights, Seems like at least half the Camaro's have been worked on or built there.
They have a complete Aftermarket Performance Center, clean builds that make great power, check them out.

My husband and I will be moving out to Phoenix in Late October! Looking for any info on meeting up with other Camaro5 members! We will be moving to just out side of Surpirse Arizona. Any other members live out that way? We don't see as many Camaro's out in the Phoenix area...not like there are here in Albuquerque, but maybe we can change all that!

stlrammer · 09-23-2012, 10:02 AM

Don"t forget that Bondurant (GM Racing School) and Firebird Speedway are there. I visited a couple of weeks back.

I think somebody mentioned it but let us know about The Pavillions...

A few of us 505 hardcores have considered a weekend trip out that way. Now that we're gonna have an "in" it might be more worth it.

Hey Ivan! You lurker you! We really do have to set up a cruise! I think the Pavillions are in Scottsdale...so that would be about 45 minutes from our place, and that would be on a good day. Now that the snowbirds are coming back into town it might take a little longer! But I would love to meet out there! The 505 group could meet up at our place and then cruise out as a group! We could really wake up Phoenix with some of our rides! And if we could talk a certain Andre into coming out! Well need I say more!
