2010 Camaro5 Gathering – Click above for high-res image gallery

Last weekend, Camaro5 sponsored the world’s largest gathering of fifth-generation Chevrolet Camaros and their owners in Valdosta, Georgia. Over 1,000 of the cars descended on the town, and Chevrolet itself stopped by for the shindig. The company brought along a few treats for the crowd, including folks like Al Oppenheiser, Peter Kosak, John Fitzpatrick and Cheryl Pilcher – all names tied to bringing the car to life.

Not only did members of the Camaro team show up to meet the crowd and answer a few questions, but a heavily camo’d 2011 Camaro, VIN 002, was brought along as well. Attendees also got to drive through Valdosta in one big parade – a stunt that resulted in a line of 2010 Camaros three miles long. At the end of the drive, Camaro5 hosted drag races, autocross events and a car show at South Georgia Motorsports Park. Sounds like a good time to us, a fact proven in the high-res image gallery below. Hop the jump for a peep at the press release.
