 Click here for Class Fees & Information.
Registration for the Camaro Nationals includes admission to the GM Nationals. The sticker on your
car allows entrance Thursday through Sunday for your Camaro, two adults and 2 children.
This is an explanation of the various classes offered at the Camaro Nationals. They are broken down into judged and non-judged; and the judged classes are
then broken down into participant vote, 200 point, 1000 point, and 5000 point systems. The classes are more detailed and more difficult as the
point system increases, and obviously, it takes more time to judge them as the points level goes up. |
|
| Non-Judged Classes |
Non-Judged Field
Class 30 |
Whether you are just not into detailing your Camaro, or you just have more trophies than your garage has shelves,
this class allows you to participate in all the fun and comradery of the Nationals without any of the work - and still gets you a front row parking spot for your
Camaro - at a price that can't be beat. This class is open to any and all Camaros, in any condition, as long as they can drive onto the field under their own power. |
Heritage Class
Class 45 |
This class allows the display of Certified Camaros - those that have completed Vintage, Legend, or Bow Tie systems. A.C.A.
will attempt to provide protection from the elements for these cars as it may be available, but please do not plan on your car being under cover. |
Participant Vote Classes

Participant vote classes are open to all Camaros. These classes are judged by popular vote of all Camaro attendees. Stock should generally appear stock. Mild Mod is for bolt-on items under hood, seat changes, tuner lenses, etc. No cutting of body, hood, or dash panels in Mild Modified.

Bow Tie Classes
1000 Point System
Class 57-59 |
This class will be judged 'stock'. Cars will be judged against a judging sheet for a points based
award, rather than against other cars. Although cleanliness will be addressed, the major emphasis will be on duplicating the way the car would have come from the
factory. Basic numbers and tags will be checked, to confirm that features, options, and colors are correct for the car being judged. Engine block must be matching
numbers to achieve maximum points. Judges will be checking for bias tires, spiral shocks, proper battery, alternator, distributor, etc. Equipment may be original,
NOS, good quality used, or quality reproduction parts. Class limited to 15 cars in 1st generation, 5 cars each in 2nd & 3rd gen. As is for all judged classes,
Bow Tie MUST be pre-registered. 1st generation fills very quickly, so do not hesitate if interested. Please note that although this class goes into quite a bit of
detail, it is not on a par with our concours classes. Judging time is approximately 25 minutes per car, compared to 3 hours in concours. For those cars considering
the possibility of moving on to Legends class, and would like to have their car approved to move up, specify ' L'. There is a small additional fee for this check. |

Concours Class
5000 Point System |
These classes are the apex of the Camaro judging systems. All Camaros in this class will receive two goodie bags,
a 'GM Nationals' dash plaque, and will be eligible for door prizes and 'best of' awards. The first 250 pre-registered cars will receive a 'Camaro Nationals' dash
plaque in addition to the above.
Due to the extensive judging time and detail involved in the following classes, judging will occur inside building 'Y'. As the popularity of these classes
continues to increase, it may not be possible to keep all participants inside the building while not being judged. Indoor spaces will be assigned based on:
- Returning Camaros; and
- Receipt date of completed registration and pre-qualification forms with all requested information and part numbers.
Heritage Display cars will fill any unassigned indoor spaces as of 30 days prior to show. |

Info on Vintage Class
|
Camaros anticipating entry into the Vintage program must be pre-qualified. Vintage Camaro inspects the Camaro on
a maximum 5000 point system, based on the options and features of the individual automobile. Obviously matching numbers are required on all marked components. As
Certification verifies that the Camaro is an intact, undisturbed original car; most entrants into this program will be low mileage all-original cars. If interested,
contact A.C.A. or Vintage Camaro as soon as possible, as number of Camaros is limited. This is a one year program.

Legend Class
1967-1981
Class 53-54
Click Here for More
Info on Leend Class |
As this restored class goes into detail beyond the scope of many participants, Camaros entering this class must
be qualified by previous participation in class 57/58 L (Bow Tie), or by inspection by one of the concurs judges prior to entry. This requirement is in place to save
expense and time of those not familiar with this system, and to prevent assigning the limited number of Legend spaces to unqualified cars, thus preventing qualified
cars from participating. Obviously matching numbers are required on all marked components. This is an extremely thorough system; all parts will be evaluated as to
correctness, originality, finish, and condition. Cars must achieve a minimum score to continue in the system the following year; and must achieve a score of 96%
within three years to 'graduate' and achieve Heritage status. If a car achieves a score of 98% prior to the third year, it automatically achieves the "Top Flight Award" with Heritage status
and does not need to return for additional judging. If interested in this class, contact A.C.A. as soon as possible. Space is limited to returning Camaros plus a
limited number of new entries. Accepted entrants may request a copy of the scoring sheet to assist in final preparation of the car.
Be sure to complete and submit a pre-qualification form along with your pre-registration form if you are a first time Concours applicant.
