How is CamZilla these days RC? Is she in the garage for the winter yet?

I should take a video of my car in walk-around form. You'd all make fun of it b/c it sounds like a shitty diesel.

300bhp, 320lb-ft and 33mpg highway say otherwise though.

It undergoing surgery at EnglandGreen in Houston.

Electric gremlins have been tracked down at last.

And hopefully will have banished the terrible shifting issues the car had - new clutch should address the shift issues - it appears rather than be an upgrade, the SpecIII clutch "upgrade" from 2006 was the culprit after all.

Pisses me off really, as the Spec was supposed to be the clutch back in the day, but all it did was exacerbate the shitty GM clutch hydraulics.

Getting a twin-disk Mcleod RST this time - this one is supposed to be dogs bollacks... let's hope yeah - LOL

Paul, you should enter the car in the Optima Invitational for the pro-touring cars. I'm sure ~smaller cam~zilla would do quite nicely

We entered with this 595 RWHP n/a beast and finisehd the road course section 9th fastest out of more than 50 cars. Not bad for a car weighing in at 4100+ lbs incl. the driver

Looking good. But to qualify, don't you need to be an exhibitor or at least have your car exhibited for the SEMA?

Is this my LPE invite for the 2012 event??

While I can't make promises; I can nudge for position. I'll look into it

Well, does LPE do roll cages? I am wanting a custom cage that will allow me to run the car on track and at open road race events with an extra margin of safety, but still be able to use the car on the street at times.

Perhaps removeable NASCAR style door bars.

That way the car does have some an LPE touch

Why yes, we do!

edit:
There was another Lingenfelter powered LS7 at the event; and he did quite well too. A 1969 Stingray that was fully built.


With or without LPE... I can give a nudge; but a cage would be helpful for certain. Besides, I have always known you wanted to see what a FRC looks like with a chopped roof (temporarily)
