As much as it pains me to do it, I think it is time to part ways with The Purp. The engine, driveline, suspension, and chassis were completely built up in GM High-Tech Performance before the magazine was shuttered. It's first track test was covered by Super Chevy and there is one more story on the way to complete the project. The original plan was to build it for LSX Real Street and is just a nitrous system away from being competitive in the class. Otherwise this is a custom painted, turnkey racecar that drives straight as an arrow. As-is the car will run mid to high 9s. Here is a summary of the build:

If you are considering running this class, this is probably the cheapest way in. The next event (LSX Shootout in Indy) is a month away, so there is plenty of time for testing prior. This car can easily be adapted for X275 or Ultra Street with a little work as well (plus local Real Street classes). And it has not been cut up, so it can easily be converted back to a streetcar if need be.

Rear wheel/tire specs? It's a beautiful car.

Scott@GMHTP

Thank you. Those are Holeshot Hole Star 15x10 with Titanium finish with Mickey Thompson ET Street Radial 275/60/15. On the one clean pass it went a 1.65 in the 60' on motor with these tires (@20psi).

Scott@GMHTP

FYI I will consider trades, especially Corvettes... Not looking to part out, but will consider reasonable offers.

Thinking about making this a roller for $16.5k. Everything but the engine. Any takers?

Scott@GMHTP

Update: it is going back to SAM for the final dyno tune. Unless I hear otherwise, the car will be coming back to FL after that in time for winter testing.

Scott@GMHTP

Here is the latest story:

The motor is being freshened up by SAM right now and they are making a few small changes to squeak a little more power out of it.

Scott@GMHTP

Update: gained another 25hp and the car is ready to move. I dropped the price as well. Let me know ASAP if you are in Texas and interested because the car is coming back to FL soon.
