Chevrolet Camaro Racecar to Debut at VIR Sunday
This Sunday at Virginia International Raceway marks the first time all three modern day muscle cars will compete head-to-head in a sanctioned race series, thanks to the debut appearance of the 2010 Sunoco with the 2010 Sunoco Chevrolet Camaro racecar making its first appearance on the track.

We first saw this sweet-looking #6 Camaro (which emulates the famed Penske-Sunoco Camaros driven by Mark Donohue and Ronnie Bucknum) at the 2008 SEMA show in Las Vegas, but the folks at Riley Technologies have continued to work their magic on the car. Perhaps even more interesting, the Camaro will be piloted by drivers David Donohue and Jeff Bucknam, the sons of the Mark and Ronnie, respectively.

"I am so excited to be a part of a program that brings so much history together in today's sports car racing," said Bucknum. "I have enjoyed working on setting up this program no only for personal reasons but also for the chance to get to know David Donohue."
