Conrad Grunewald’s New Camaro

After seeing Alex Pfeiffer driving the Tanaka Corvette at the last few stops of Formula D, I was beginning to wonder what ever happened to Conrad Grunewald. Well I wonder no more. It looks like Conrad will be debuting a new Camaro for next season.

Being built by local boy Luke Lonberger and the BR Racing crew, the Camaro is scheduled to be finished in time for SEMA in November. For the sketches of the car, it looks to be an interesting build that will give the Falken Mustang a run for its money. Hopefully the real car will look like the sketch.

The build can be seen on Conrad;s website here.

Last weekend had the Indy Racing League come to Infinion Raceway in Sonoma County. Along with the IRL, Formula Drift ended up tagging along and having their event a few weeks early. This was also the first event where I was able to get a media pass to shoot from the other side of the fence. There were complaints from some of the other photographers about the IRL restricting where Formula D could put some of the cement barriers, thereby limiting the places where we could shoot from. I tried to do my best with what where were allowed to go. I definitely feel like there were some places that I wanted to shoot from but didn’t have time, and I guess that’s a lesson learned for next time to make better use of my time.
