2010 Camaro "White" package
very cool! Wonder what they mean by approved racing team. Are they really going to have a board go over that to make sure you are "up" to their standards? They should sell the hell out of these because if it makes a buck its worth it!
They probably do, they have such a thing for SEMA cars. If it will benefit them more then you, then they will approve it. Chances are you would need to provide a rendering and parts list, as well as events this thing will attend. And as GIZMO said, they do not want to sell many of these. They are probably do not meet production specifications, but rather then scrap them ...
FORD has been selling the **** of Body in White cars for ever and a day. They will sell them to anyone wanting to build a race car. No vin tags no nothing. One of the local chassis shops used to buy 2 or 3 a year and do up the cages and sell them for a very nice profit. He did a few 4th Gen F-Bodies the same way.
The application is fairly mundane. You have to agree that the car is not able to be liscensed, insured, able to be put back on the street, has no warranty of any kind, ect, ect.... If you are willing to pay the $$$$$ and sign the papers you can get one.
These cars are sold due to some minor defect, Crap weld, seam, e-coat, or what ever. GM can sell them to racers for $7000 instead of scrap them. Makes sense to me.
As long as GM makes these cars, there will be Body in White Car’s to buy.

If you are lucky enough to get one of these there will most likely be a legal agreement that no attempt will be made to register the vehicle for road use.
My good friend Mark has a 1997 Mustang Cobra that Ford gave him to race. It came with a very cool letter saying that he can never sell it, but should have it crushed if he is done with it! (You would die if you new how many test cars, etc. get crushed every year).

Apparently not anymore lol. Some cars are running stock style suspensions (for other vehicles) and get away with it. So you could put a torque arm in the car and be ok...but as always it is up to the sanctioning group

Cool to see, but as mentioned I'd buy a 6 banger and have the VIN and such to keep a more streetable appearance. But for those wanting to build a dedicated drag only car, this is a good way to go.
