Default Hardcore Motorsports Trans-Am

I'm sure most people know about the whole Hardcore Motorsports scenario. With all of their stuff being auctioned off...I'm sure some people have followed the auctions closely. So here is my question...Their black Trans Am that was the first LS1 powered car in the 7's....does anyone know what happened to it?

This is an article about the car

http://www.gmhightechperformance.com...ure/index.html

I'm asking this because I'm pretty sure I ended up with this car. If it is not, it was built nearly identical to what I see in the pictures. Is there anyone out there that could help me identify it?

Thanks for any response,
Scotty Rienschield

Default Thanks..

*I will take some to post....

*Haha...it definitely doesn't run 7's...I just bought it from the Hardcore auction stuff. It's basically a chassis/body. No engine...trans. Actually it's kind of been stripped down a bit...looks like they were updating it with some new brackets, tabs, and such.

Sam...I'm not sure what I'm going to do with it yet. It's a pretty nice car...but it's a ways from being ready to go anywhere. I thought about running the outlaw 8.5 deal they have at Edgewater now...but a more realistic idea would be just making it a Box/No Box car.

CSJTA2...It is not the Green one you see in those pictures...but I actually bought that one also. It was in a package with three cars. That one is a pretty nice deal...but I'm probably just going to try to sell it.

That engine in the T/A was all C5R based. I would not consider it "LS1". Kinda like calling a 700 inch Gene Fulton engine a "big block Chevy"....uh I dont think so.
