Well it has come to a point where I need to put this thing up forsale. Its running perfect, compression check is perfect, leak down is perfect. Nitrous system is ready to go. The car is in its best condition. Only thing I am waiting to do is put carpet back in the car. The car is well known around here in Texas by myself and the previous owner. It is currently one of the fastest LS1s in Texas. Here is a little breakdown on the car.

I've had the car over a year and a half now. It has gone from running a 10.7 @ ~125mph on motor to a 9.5 @ 120, letting off at the 1/8th mile. This car is a bad SOB. If I were not having problems with funding to keep racing I would not be selling the car. I am going to take it out one more time and click off some 8sec passes. Maybe taking the record for the fastest LS1 in Texas

I am looking to get $27,000 for the car and the trailer. The trailer will have new tires on it.

Here are some pictures before I put the full cage in the car






Here is a quick video of the car at HMP. The car ran a 5.9 @ 118.8mph with a 1.43 60ft on a 300 shot, on a progressive. So as you can see.. she has ALOT left in her.

Like I said this is really hurting me trying to sell this. Those who know me know how much this car means to me. I do not want to sell it, but as I said I have lost all of my funding to do so. Yes that means my parents do not want to support the car and I do not have the personal funds anymore like I use to.

 

wow a 5.9! Thats fasssttt

 

I cant actually believe he is selling the car. Good luck with the sale!

 

Good luck on the sale. It is a nice car. Hell I can remeber when Weatherman had that car 422 and I stayed side by side with him, with my heads cam TH350.

Buy my Buick after you sell the car.

Good luck.

 

I hate to see you sell that beast .

 

Damn you.

 

Too Bad Is For Sale!!!

 

Chris, sorry to hear that you're going to sell the car. Believe me, I can relate to your position.

IMO I would think twice about going to the track and pounding a huge shot on it "one more time". If its for sale I'd leave well enough alone and try and sell it as it is. Be careful and don't let Murphy's law bite you in the butt. Just some food for thought my friend.

 

If he blows it up that means he'll probably have to fix it before he can sell it.

Let's put it on kill!!!!!

 

Thats exactly my point. He obviously doesn't have the funds to race/repair it, so why play russian roulette? Sell it while its in one piece. If he blows up the motor this weekend he probably can't afford to fix it and you sure can't sell it in that condition.

 

Chris-Sorry to hear this man thats a hell of a beast!! Good luck with the sale hope it works out for you.

 

I'd hate to see the N2O bill that thing rings up after a good weekend of racing I'm already looking for a spare bottle & I'm only running 75-100 shots on a single stage EFI.

Good luck with the sale. Hate to see it go, but I'd like to see you get something more for street fun! I say get another C5

 

Chris cant belive you are getting rid of the car! Car is bad ***, wont be disapointed whoever buy's it!

Rob

 

thats deff a very clean car

 

Speaking of, has Weatherguy (Greg) come around lately?

 

Chris: well i think you built this car right. props on all the hardwork and effort you and the skronny pale homies put into her. you've gone faster then most of us will. this car is a beast.

 

awesome car

 

Chris put his heart into this car I'd hate to see it go at any price...

Fastest LS1 I've ever seen, and one of the cleanest.

 

damn parents...."it hurts us more than it hurts you"....stop lying. Give him money so he can race and stop being selfish
