Default Vince's FRC w/ Futral 408ci - short vid inside!
Everyone on this board must know by now that Vince finally got his 408ci transplanted into his new Torch Red FRC. The sound of that thing with the Borla Stingers is absolutely incredible. Here is a short clip to give everyone an idea of what this beast sounds like and a little tease of its performance ability (I think Vince should keep the Borlas...they ROCK!!)

Right click and save as....

Dumb question: What's FRC stand for?

Sounds/looks good. I didn't think 408's rev hard like that - I'm here thinking they were big-block-like stump-pullers.

If he could only shift a little faster that would be awesome. Just kidding Vince.

It was a spur of the moment thing. I can shift faster.. When I ordered this setup I asked Futral Motorsports to make sure the car revs like a 346ci and it does. It goes right up to 7krpm w/out a hiccup.. There will be some better videos soon..

FRC = Fixed Roof Coupe (same body style as Z06, but built in 99-00 before the z06 was created)

I am trying to set up a race with a local Enzo owner. The only hard part is finding a camera car fast enough..

Video didn't work. It said they don't allow direct linking.

That sucks I have read about your car and I was looking forward to seeing it.
