Full race car for the street, love it!

You know the engine is healthy...I wonder how much it weighs? Could be a dark horse contender.

I guessing 3,200 lbs with all the caging.

I'm not crazy about the rims, but love the build. The interior is ALL business.

You may want to look closer. It doesn't have any.

Very cool car, the exterior looks similar to a 2013 1LE.

but.. It's a straight up race car that happens to be street legal.

DSE usually does a good job of building fast cars without them looking like race cars.

If they usually make understated cars that are fast, how fast is their car that looks like a straight up race car?

And to think I once thought Kyle and Ryan would be traveling in comfort, compared to our friends in the vintage class, when they said they were bringing a fifth gen Camaro.

That's nice! I wish they wouldn't call it a test car I wish they would give it a real name. IMO calling it a Test Car trivializes an obviously nice build. I would be interested to see how that car competes in SCCA or NASA competition.

I'm sure it's all about weight. 5th Gen's are pigs. Yeah, not many creature comforts left in that thing

"Test Car" allows it to be a business related build with all the financial benefits associated with it. Makes a lot of sense to me!
