Default 800+ rwhp Zo6 movie coming soon!

I went and visted Shaun the other day and saw the beast awaiting his wrench.

I'm going down there monday at 11am with my Video equipment and making a 15min movie that will detail everything Shaun did to this monster vette. I'm doing this for fun, and because this car is magazine material and deserves some publicity. The mod list and custom fabrication on this car is mind boggling!

Feel free to come down and check it out and see his new shop as the Vette will only be there a short while.

*** This is the Vette that BROKE Lingenfelter's Speed record and was custom built by Shaun!***

So come down, have something to eat, and see this work of art!

For those that can't see it in real life you will get to see it after I encode the movie.

I talked to Shaun last year when he was working on that car (had my car in at Roy Robinson) and he said it would spin the tires on the dyno.

If it was the supercharged Vette he was talking about.

Has to be officially recorded to break any records doesn't it? What record did it exactly break and where? Every year Car and Driver has a car that beats last years 0-150-0. I know the twin turbo was the holder until McLaren broke it this year.

Well all I know is this car did around 240mph and I think Lingenfelters turbo C5 did 236-ish..?

Was it recorded by a magazine or some kind of official... probably not

Sounds like one awesome car. Top speed honors still go to the Sledgehammer Corvette by Callaway/Lingerfelter at 254.76mph. That record has stood since 1988.
