Default Something interesting I got to work on today

I did some idle tuning and AFR tuning on this today for Mosler Motorsports . Thought Id share some pics. The car is all carbon fiber in and out,with a stock LS6 bottom end. Magnason blower,heads and cam. This car will be transported to New York then driven across the country in some high profile high dollar car tour.

nice, those are built in Miami right? I remember seeing the first ever Mosler (race car) run at Sebring around 10 years ago. I would love to own one if i ever won the lottery or get a nice high paying job out of college... I mean who needs a house?

The are in Riviera Beach. I didnt even bother asking how much it cost. I will tell you this. The engine is 35,000 dollars to replace ,and its a stock bottom end. It is a race car that could uncomfortably be driven on the street.

Yea Paul I think I convinced Jessie's dad to buy one so that'll be four in your hood lol. Oh yea, it's not a kit car, they are built in a factory, in Florida, in the USA.

Love how the interior has carbon fiber all over the place. One question though why would the engine be so expensive to replace if its just a stock bottom LS6 with a supercharger? My guess was maybe because of where and how the engine was mounted, assuming labor is factored into that price. Also they should have opted for the polished charger. But still one bad *** looking ride.

I was thinking the same thing. That car looks alot like the S7. So is that car able to be registered on the street or is it a track car?

street car! they also make race versions available for customers to buy if they want them. They were strong cars in Grand-AM but with the rules changing every year in that series I believe they were factored out which sucks!
