Houston, TX Z06 - Stage 1 complete It's taken a while to get this car on the road, but she's finally done with the stage 1 build. So I will get to take the car out, enjoy it for a while, and then take her back down for stage 2 at some point.
I've been away from racing for a while now, left to start building a Twin 67mm LSX FD RX7, but finally gave up on the race car **** and went back to a street car build.
RHS 447ci
Mast 305cc
Wilson Sheet Metal Intake
ProEFI EMS
Nitrous Outlet single stage
RPM Level V Transmission
Fore Triple Fuel System
ID1000's
LG Drag Coilovers
Weld RTS
yadda yadda yadda....
D3 Performance Engineering helped out with the ProEFI wiring, installation, and tuning to get this car ready and so far so good. Here are a couple vids from last weekend when I got to pop the cherry on the new setup.
and
Anyways, hoping to attend some meets and events, not sure where people are meeting up these days, been away for a few years and in that time period, most of the Houston sites that I used to frequent have all but died. If anyone is aware of any Houston meets worth attending, I'd love to get back out there and find some good meets, people, and races to attend. I'm signed up for the TSS Quick 30 track rental to do some track test-n-tune, but that's not until November, so I may have to visit the track before that for some test hits. See you around.

Different hood, different head lights, different mirrors, different wing, different roof, different wheels, different ground effects, etc.... But hey, WTF, they're both silver Z06's which is close enough in my book.

Makes me want to paint mine purple or something.
Also put a new hood on mine too just to separate it a bit.

My hood will be getting painted silver soon, so that will remove that from the equation. I know Lingenfelter Chris (Hellraiser) is also running around in a Silver Z w/ black head lights and black wheels.

Dunn the lethal twin turbo one probably the closest looking one..
but the silver and black thing is one of the best looking combos.

If we're talking about Chris....he has a standing call-out waiting for him and his 441ci 200 shot Z06. I think he has tires on order, so we'll see if this can happen this weekend.

Good luck getting him to line up with you, he'll have 100 excuses on why he can't race when you want. Then when he knows that you or your car isn't ready he'll call you out. Since my wife ripped his *** in my car with my baby turbo almost a year ago his car has been in hiding, and has yet to admit it.

Good looking build Scott, good to see you back in action! I'll also be at the TSS Quick 30 event in November. I have yet to turn up the wick with the new turbo, they kicked me off at 20psi because I didnt have a license. I'm hoping for my rematch with Bryan Luna with the bugs worked out in both of our cars. Would also like a run or two with Austin Hickman.
