Celebrating the coolest cars ever made, nothing like the sound of that engine when you turn that key.
Muscle car is an American term used to refer to a variety of high-performance automobiles. The Merriam-Webster dictionary defines muscle cars as "any of a group of American-made 2-door sports cars with powerful engines designed for high-performance driving." A large V8 engine is fitted in a 2 or 4 door, rear wheel drive, family-style full-size car designed for four or more passengers. Sold at an affordable price, muscle cars are intended for street use and occasional drag racing. They are distinct from two-seat sports cars and expensive 2+2 GTs intended for high-speed touring and road racing.
Palm Beach, Florida, is home base to a very impressive 1969 Camaro, which sees a lot of action in a unique and regional racing circuit. Troy Blake campaigns his single-carb, nitrous-assisted machine in the creative Outlaw 632 class, which features a number of independent eighth-mile events each season, located mostly within the Southeast. With his striking silver machine, Blake is both a frequent runner and frequent winner within that tour (as of press time, he has four wins in 2015). The car was originally built in 2011 by KB Race Cars and raced by Jeff Colletta in NMCA Pro Street. Troy acquired the car in 2013 and has been running it ever since. To keep within the class rules, which encourage a variety of machines with unlimited tire size and heads-up racing, Blake’s machine uses a 640ci engine (by Terry Williams) and his car tips the scale at 3,050 pounds. The car has run a best eighth-mile e.t. of 4.43 at 165 mph. Troy credits his ongoing success to the tuning expertise of his crew chief Todd Trimaldi as well as the support of crew members Hank Hill; Jimmy “V”; and girlfriend, Bryn.
