Next up? The Fesler-Moss Limited Edition 2010 Camaro SS complete with custom body work and a built-to-order engine package even including the ZR1s LS9!

Chris Fesler and Jon Moss (of GM Performance fame) teamed up to create this custom limited edition 2010 Camaro SS for the mesh-wife-beater-wearing, previously-Monte-Carlo-Dale-Earnhardt-Intimidator-Edition-driving, family-franchise-starting crowd. They'll build your Camaro with a custom body kit with molded rear lip spoiler (how they do that is anybody's guess) and any LS-series engine that's currently on offer including the venerable supercharged LS9 from the Corvette ZR1. Take that Hennessey! Production is scheduled to start...well, now, and delivery to begin soon after.

Fesler-Moss Press Release

After months of design and calibration Chris Fesler and Jon Moss have teamed up to offer Chevy lovers with their version of the ultimate 2010 Camaro. The Chevrolet Camaro will forever be known as America's original muscle car. Chris Fesler and Jon Moss have expanded on that principle to create the Fesler-Moss Edition 2010 Camaro.

Built with similar historic features that have been prevalent throughout the Camaro's bloodline, the Fesler-Moss Camaro stays true to the original Camaro lines, performance, handling and most important, horsepower. Some features include;

• GM Performance LS-3, LS-7, LS-9 and LSX engines,
• 6 speed or built 4L65E transmission,
• Fesler-Moss braned Magnuson Supercharger,
• Fesler-Moss 3 piece billet wheels,

<![CDATA[Randy Moss To Start NASCAR Truck Team And No, We're Not Joking]]> Randy Moss, the man who combined with Tom Brady to give us quite the fantasy football season last year (and, apparently, helped take the Patriots to the Super Bowl), is going to be starting a NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series team. Fox Sports is reporting that Moss hopes to get the team running in races later this year in advance of a full 2009 season. At the moment he lacks a manufacturer, a driver and a sponsor. But he's Randy Moss, so that doesn't much matter. Plus, if Dan Marino and Troy Aikman can do it why can't he?

From the Fox Sports article:

"There are a lot of NASCAR fans in the locker room," Moss said in a statement released Tuesday. "We've seen a lot of football players get involved — guys like Dan Marino and Troy Aikman, to name a couple. I think it's a good fit and gives some of the companies I am already working with an additional outlet. It's a smart move on the marketing side of things, but on the personal side of things, I think it's going to be a lot of fun."
This is like that story from The Onion about Great African American Moments in NASCAR but suddenly real. [Fox Sports]]]>
