Default SEMA 1200hp CAMARO SS feat D2FORGED Wheels

Hey guys, we just wanted to share some pics of the now infamous 1200hp Camaro that was on the SEMA Show Floor (Central Hall) sporting our wheels.

We actually got the call from one of our Authorized Dealers, LATE MODEL RACECRAFT, with the opportunity to get in on this major vehicle. We decided the Brushed Aluminum VS1 would be a perfect, purposeful compliment to the powerful Camaro. The whole "murdered out" thing is cool, but we wanted to go the clean and classic look.

The car has a 427ci motor, Procharger F1-R Supercharger, and custom LMR Fuel system. It made 827rwhp with no tune. When I took a ride in it after the SEMA show it was pushing 20psi and over 1000rwhp. Silly power......simply silly.

Here are some pics of our contribution to the words fastest 2010 Camaro

damn man thats like Veyron territory. Pretty cool but I doubt more than 400 of that hp is useable. The chassis is not designed for that much power

I like the wheels but I think your VS2 wheel would have flowed better with that body for some reason.

You mean it wouldn't get traction but I think that chassis can handle that. I'm sure Toyota didn't design the Supra or SC chassis to handle a lot of power and we both know they can.

that actually does look very good for the new body style. I hope they spent some cash on the interior as well

I meant that neither the Camaro or the Supra could handle that much power without chassis reinforcement . Also there is a difference between a drag car and a real track car with that much power. I guarantee you that , like the Hennesey Viper, its no good unless you are in a straight line. I have seen videos of a Hennesey 1000 hp Viper lose a track race to a 500 hp 911 because it spun out twice going from 3rd to 4th gear. The torque is so great that you are getting wheel spin at 100+ mph. Cool in theory but stupid and dangerous in reality.

Funny you say that, the owner of the car said the same thing when he saw the VS2's. He's ordering a set next month! We made some revisions to the VS2, which will increase its lip size by about .5-1.0".

I have to admit though, I LOVE the VS1's on this car, and I'm personally getting a little tired of putting it on so many cars. (its our most popular one).

I love the fact that it looks classy, aggressive and almost European. I have always secretly loved the Gen 5 Camaro's styling. I guess the secret is out now. lol

None. The interior is not AS bad in person, but its definitely spartan. I'm not a big Challenger fan at all, but I must concede that it has a better interior than the Camaro.
