Despite the challenging times in Detroit, the NMCA and Scoggin-Dickey, GM Performance Parts' host dealer for the '09 LSX Shootout, have have guaranteed that all purses and bonus prizes are ready and waiting to be awarded at the event which will take place at Memphis Motorsports Park (TN) the weekend of Oct. 15-18, 2009. The NMCA expects the event to be even larger than the previous two years. GM Performance Parts will have a major presence with their custom rig at the LSX Shootout and their host dealer, Scoggin-Dickey, will be at the show in force! GM High-Tech Performance magazine has just announced a special heads-up Shootout for Chevy's newest hot rod. The GM High-Tech Performance 2010 Camaro Shootout will take the top-8 competitors from Saturday's LSX True Street Challenge and race them heads-up in a Sunday bonus race where the winner will receive an LSX block, courtesy of Scoggin-Dickey, and color feature in GM High-Tech Performance magazine!
"We are very excited that GM High-Tech Performance magazine has chosen to create a special class to showcase 2010 Camaro performance," said Steve Wolcott, CEO of NMCA. "We have been partners with GM High-Tech Performance for many years and the NMCA will do whatever it can to showcase the awesome performance of the all-new Camaro. We expect the 2009 LSX Shootout to be much larger than previous years because of the growing LS performance segment, more media support and, of course, the release of the all-new Camaro."
