Chevrolet Camaro "Most Hated" by Michael Serrano

Michael Serrano's Chevrolet Camaro, known as 'Most Hated,' is a powerhouse of performance built with the sole purpose of being the fastest legitimate street car in the Northeastern United States. Serrano's dedication to performance is evident in the Camaro's 1,781-horsepower engine, making it a formidable competitor both on the dyno and at the dragstrip. The build features a turbocharged 565 cubic inch Dart block engine with Precision Turbo's 118mm turbocharger, controlled by a BigStuff3 engine management system. The setup includes Brodix BB2 heads, a custom Comp Cams camshaft, and a full complement of premium internals designed for high-strength performance. The Camaro also boasts Moser Engineering's nine-inch Ford housing and Weld Racing wheels, alongside competition-grade suspension components, including Santhuff struts and shocks. With victories in competitions like the Cecil County Dragway's Tri State Street Car Challenge, the car demonstrates its capability beyond being a dyno queen, proving it is street-legal and can meet performance demands on the road.
