The top 10 Camaros to have graced Australian race tracks over the years.

HSV’s right-hand drive Chevrolet Camaro is here. The right-hook American muscle coupe will help ll the GM void left in the local muscle car market following the exit of the locally-manufactur­ed Holden Commodore, and provide a V8-powered alternativ­e to the Mustang. Whether or not the Camaro joins the Mustang in Supercars racing remains to be seen. But even if a Supercars version of the Camaro does not materialis­e, there’s a chance we’ll see one or two in GT sports car racing, competing in events like the Bathurst 12 Hour. With this issue being themed around ‘Camaros in Australia’ it’s appropriat­e for us to look back at some of the more legendary Camaros to have graced our racetracks over the years. We begin with the most legendary of all.
