Hell no its not. Moran's old car, Whitey's car, etc. Plus the new/old vette and that tube-frame Yenko copy! WOW!

I'd really like to see more pics of that 2nd gen Camaro that we see the back off on the main gallery page. And of Kurt's turbo kit.

Nice Jig. Absolutely great photo gallery! Shows what really goes into building a safe race car. The tube subframe is absolutely trick!

No kidding, it's a work of art!! My question is, why didn't they just cut the whole floor pan out of the car and fab the chassis that way? Seems like it woulda been easier to make it a "tin can" than go through the trouble of cutting wholes in the floor pan and then welding around the cage and chassis.

Thanks for the compliments.The car has progressed nicely since those pics were taken.The cage and undercarriage got sprayed today with 03 Corvette electron blue paint.The rest of the car will be painted next week and it's back to W2W for completion.

I have big plans for the car.

The Z06's left side output shaft didn't like the 6500 rpm clutch dump I did.Norwalk's sticky track claimed another victim.

I'm waiting on a Dynotech 4340 shaft and differential strut at the moment.


Jonathan,I don't know about world domination but hopefully the stock suspension 3rd and 4th gen records. That's the plan at least.

you saw how steves formula went down norwalk, the way the records will fall will be suspension set up not the power it makes anymore. Got to figure out how to get 1500+HP to hook.

You have any more photos of what you've done to it? It appears you ditched the TTI kit that you had before.
