For 70 years, Speedway Motors has helped auto enthusiasts and racers build their best cars. Team Speedway regularly puts Speedway Motors parts to the test on the track running a ’70 Camaro, ’86 Corvette, ’65 Nova and this year they are planning to bring their ’67 Camaro back to the track. All of Team Speedway’s vehicles were built with performance in mind and to showcase Speedway Motors products on the track.

The ’70 Camaro showcases Speedway Motors G-Comp 1970-81 Camaro/Firebird Torque Arm Rear Suspension Kit, was fitted with an Unser Edition Front Suspension Kit and sports a 427 LS7 using a RHS block and heads built by Speedway Motors Racing Engines.

Team Speedway’s ’65 Nova sits on a G-Comp Unser Edition ‘62-’67 Chevy II Nova Rear Suspension and ‘62-’67 Chevy II Nova Front Suspension Kit.

The C4 ’86 Corvette sports a Tremec conversion kit and shock package from Speedway Motors.

“Team Speedway drivers have pushed the ’70 Camaro, ’68 Camaro and ’65 Nova cars to their limits, slamming through courses with 1.7g lateral loading and intense braking, plus acceleration that only a 750 hp engine can provide,” said Bill Schneider, Speedway Motors R&D Engineer and Team Speedway Manager. “If G-Comp components can handle this type of punishment, you can be sure they’ll be reliable for whatever automotive activity you have planned.”

They will be showcasing these vehicles and parts as they compete at events across the country. Their 2022 schedule will include:

Goodguys Spring Nationals March 18-19 in Scottsdale, Ariz.

Goodguys Nationals May 13-15 in Nashville, Tenn.

Big Blue Mile Shootout June 5-6 in Seward, Neb.

ABOUT Speedway Motors®

In 1952, “Speedy” Bill decided to start Speedway Motors. If he couldn’t find the right high-quality parts, he would make them himself. And he’d know if they were high quality or not, because he put them on his own racecar.
