Pontiac Pavement Pounders Shootout - POCI/Pontiac Drag Days Edition
Owner Bio: Maryangel CamachoThe husband and wife team of Victor and Maryangel Camacho represented a very formidable presence at the shootout. With Victor capably undertaking the preparation and Maryangel handling the driving, they showed how efficiently couples can participate in racing. Maryangel is a San Diego Deputy Sheriff and has been racing for two years. "The GTP was Victor's first new car," she explains. "He bought it with 5.8 miles on the odometer and it now has 158,000 miles. We really enjoyed making our first 12-second pass at LACR." The basic engine combination is actually quite simple: use as many stock components as possible, beef up the weak links and throw a healthy shot of nitrous at it. The combination has proven to be a reliable and cost-effective plan to get into the 12s. Maryangel will be sitting out a good portion of the 2007 season, though, as she just gave birth to their first child, Diego, born on April 28, 2007. Congratulations to the Camacho family. | Strip Tuning Log | | Run/Tuning | Launch RPM | Shift Pt. | 60-ft. | 1/8-mile | 1/4-mile | 1. Nitrous delay 0.2 sec,
