I dont think anyone on the site owns one, and Im fairly sure that is Dick Guldstrand himself in the pic.


Here's a pic of him back in the day when he used to race Grand Sports. He's been associated w/ Vettes for a long-long time!

Your friend is full of it. No factory 427 Z06's yet. There was a run of special 427 ZL1 Camaro's in the last year.

Dick Guldstrand I believe had GM backing.
That is Dick in the Picture. Saw him again last year at Laguna.

Jay Leno's car if I recollect is a N/A 392. Mallet did the work I believe. Yes, Tiger Shark body. Early 01 or 02.

I have the first C5 Z06.

The Tiger Shark was up for sale recently. I believe this car was prepped for GM and not done by GM.

The article on LPE 427 is little old. Most of the good N/A 427-447 are running 50-150 more rwhp now.

How is that off the top of my head?
