Default Horse Power Store Formula?

What ever happened to that car? Below is the car in question from a GMHTP article. Imagine it must have gotten sold or some thing, thats what generally happens to cars like that, people get them in magazines then sell them. Even saw the old More Performance black blower TA on e-bay a while back

Your life is old school, old school G that is. I wish we could have threads on cars like a where are they now. Be kinda cool, all these cars got so much attention and work in them when they were first built or in their prime, then sold and faded away like so many before them.

ARE silver Z28, I remember there was some drama for your mama because people thought it wasn't stock suspended. If we wanna go even old schoolier, what about the red ARE TA that was the first LS1 in the 9s wasnt it? The red ARE LT1 Z28, Dilucas old car, which ran 9.0s on the dope in 01, was found recently on racing junk, Dave sold it to some guy in Texas, and the car resurfaced back up in Baytown actually sitting in a storage unit. That was the one they did that cleean *** bright blue color change on. Was shooting for the first in the 8s but didnt happen for what ever reasons. GMHTP did a feature on how it was going for 8s, but I guess all the ARE drama occured and he split and sold the car before it happened. Whata shame

Picture of it, one of the nicest color changes ever, car used to be red, hence red sled.

Last time I spoke with Craig at GTP about Ben's old car he was trying to make it an SS again (getting an SS hood and spoiler) Of course this was a few years ago.

I try my best to keep track of my old cars. Here is my Black 383 Camaro now.

My old Formula is still in Bryan's hands (Pavlock Performance)


What ever happened to Nineball's NBM Formula?

the formula from "the horsepower store" was sold out of state i beleive. one of the guys that either owned part of the store, or ran it, now works at keith craft motorsports in plano, tx and can tell you all about it. i watched them dyno the blue car one day when they had just started getting it to make some good boost and power and i think it was 850wrhp + that day (not saying it hasn't made much more).

the airbrush pain work is some of the best i have ever seen. that picture doesn't do it justice.
