When you screw around with perfection, you something perfectly screwed up.

Alot of work in that car for sure. Modifying the lines and body of the first gen's is scary for me, that for me is why I like the cars to begin with.

Thumbs down contender

"all others will just be contenders for the title"

I have a problem with that sentence.

A contender is someone or something that has a real possibility of being the champion or the best. Being a contender is a good thing. Going against that car, it would not be very hard to be a 'contender' for "baddest camaro evvverrr". (read in Monster truck announcer voice.)

Money does not equal taste.

I don't know, maybe it is just me.

X2 BLACKJACK!! Those are without a doubt some of the baddest camaros on the planet! Every one of those cars is head and shoulders above the RK car in design, style and quality!
I may never have the personal talent to build a car of the caliber of these or the RK camaro, so I do give a ton of credit to the folks involved in producing all of them.

Well, let's just hope they take this car to some of the various racing events and prove they're man enough to back up their claims. If you read closely, the claim starts with, "The car is designed to ...". Being 'designed to' do something versus actually doing it are 2 different things. A lot of work went into that car so I wish them the best of luck.

I'd leave out Bad Penny as well. All it did was win the optima challenge. No biggie.
