<\/a>By that time, the fleet of the professional sports cars in Armenia had become so outdated, that it was the only chance to hold a motor-sport event in the country. The event was timed to coincide with the independence day of Armenia. To the organizers\u2019 surprise, lots of car enthusiasts responded to the announcement; about fifty drivers applied for participation and practically all of them were allowed to the start. The above-mentioned Camaro was also among the participants. And yes \u2026 it was the star of the two-day race across the country. The cars were divided into classes based on their engine volumes. The red Camaro accordingly got into the \u201cAbsolute\u201d class, which had no restrictions on engine size. After the draw, the car was given the starting number \u201c15\u201d and in the morning of 21 September 2002 the race started. The photo was taken the day after the start of the race, during the announcement of the results of the competition. The Camaro unfortunately did not receive any prize, but it deeply impressed all the motorists throughout Armenia and was remembered for a long time. The car was used extremely carefully and never went out of the garage in winters. No matter how gently and carefully it had been treated, the car refused to go one day. After another winter \u201chibernation\u201d, the engine appeared to have become useless. These photos, in which the old Camaro is awaiting its new destiny in its old owner\u2019s yard, were taken in 2010. And indeed, after some time the car came to life again! It was bought by another car enthusiast, who noticed the dying athlete in the neighboring yard. A few months of recovery works and some investments allowed the car to bring into a working state. Although this new owner does not have an own garage, he still treats the Camaro with great care and tenderness.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
