That car has a rich pedigree...1st LS1 in the 11s on motor.

This is one of the lightest F-bodies around that doesn't look like theft recovery, LOL. Great addition to the Ray family.

Patrick also knows this car well, it was a duel of the black Z28s back in '99, his old one and this one. Both trying to be the first LS1 in the country to run 11s on motor. Larry squeeked by him and claimed the goal, I was there to witness it.

Fun days!

I have to say that it is one very efficient machine. We've been bumped out of the brackets by him a few times

I'm glad to see it go to a deserving home and get to stretch her legs again.

Congrats to both buyer and seller!
