mark Posted October 21, 2009 Author Share Posted October 21, 2009 Sparks, I'm still at the same place. I don't think the local law enforcement would appreciate the Z on the roads around here. You are welcome to come by the house. Heavy, I have a little head and cam work. It dyno'd at 380 hp at the wheels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reason I ask is I'm curious with these relative time slips how your car compares to mine. Cameron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or is the magic in the combo the person behind the steery thing? Dave It's all the car. Kuhmo V700's, Arizona Z suspension and brakes. No rear bar. The brakes work about every other turn.

Thanks, I am trying to go next Wednesday the 28th. If the weather is good, and nothing pressing at work I plan to be there all day. I am still in the shakedown process. I have not even dynoed or tuned it. I am sure there is more power in her. Can you make it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

260DET Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 Yeh, build pics and info for all. This car should be an inspiration to S30 hybridZers, just a shame that in my country there would be no realistic race class it would fit into. Incar race videos coming up?

heavy85 Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 Mark - If your ever in the Midwest it would be fun to run against you. Mine is about the same weight and has a stock '02 LS1 with full slicks etc. so it should in the ballpark with yours with a little less power which I hope to fix over the winter. Mine doesn't look nearly as pretty though. Cameron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heavy85 Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 What track is between IL and NC? Not sure. Guess that's kind of a black hole for road courses? I read about a new track in Kentucky. My brother lives in Ohio so I could probably have my arm twisted to go to Mid-Ohio. Also depends on which side of NC your on because the coast is a good drive from here.

dtaylor Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 Great looking car and fast.. Reading your post is CMP your local track? Or do you come up to VIR or down to Roebling? I used to drive/instruct with Tarheel and other clubs in the area... Got out of it about 8 years ago. It's a long story involving a ex wife.... But I've been building a LS1 240Z for street and track for about 3 years. I'm hoping to get it on track late next year...Thanks for the thread it makes me want to get out there in the garage:)..
