In all the years since this thread was started... this is still THE coolest track-inspired no nonsense 2nd gen around. Sure there are more expensive ones, ones with more billet or fancy leather interiors and turbo's and superchargers.. but this one is just so raw and purposeful.

How did you mount your hood latches?

I am still fighting with the location of mine, for the carbon fiber hood.

Great Video! Mike Maier did one hell of a job fabricating that all up!

What was the final weight total full of fluids less driver?

I'm pretty sure that given the size of Brian's engine his car has to weigh 3200lbs. I'm not sure if they had to add lead to get to that weight.

Here are a few photos from last year. After taking 2018 off so far, I will be bringing the car out to the August Goodguys Autocross Shootout in two weeks.

Still loved seeing the vette (copy albeit) race by me being filmed in the streets of Manhattan, lucking timing.

Have fun in the cone zone, i should be there, not sure my Camaro will be though....cheers, mike
