That front end is looking just right. And that wing in action is so high-tech.

Looking at some of the high tech/high dollar stuff that is available, and is making its way on to some of the P/T cars really has me feeling like I am rubbing sticks together on some of the crap I'm building.

James that car is turning out to be a true world class supercar, that looks truely fantastic. I keep saying what else could you possibly do to a first gen Camaro to make it different, and people like yourself keep stepping it up to the next level. I am however glad, I'm not the guy writing the checks on this last revision.LOL Great job, Ron

Thanks Ron - I think.

The nice things about the changes this year is that I didn't actually change anything on the car. The sheetmetal is all modified repop stuff and the complete "original" OLC clip is put away safe and sound.

If I keep telling myself that maybe I'll be able to convince myself that I am not modifying the OneLapCamaro... I'm using it as a test bed for the next car...

I don't know why, but my frugle nature always makes me worry when I start counting shop hours, and parts installed on the sexy stuff on our websites. I really don't know why(mental disorder?), I'm not writing the checks, and don't really know what it is costing. I just know I am really jealous of the work that is done and the parts that are installed. That car is so different then your original, that I don't know why you'd want to do another car at this point, of course thats the pot calling the kettle black.

Well I was going to wait on these but since they are already out there... I give to you the 2013 OLC.R

Huge thanks to everyone who made this possible - Dick and the crew at Best of Show Coachworks for turning my vision into reality from 3000 miles away, Brian Hobaugh and Car West Elite and Elite Auto Films in Fremont for cleaning everything up and doing the wrap and, as always, the Pozzi's for handling the PITA things.

James,

I saw the pics on FB. I have to say I was skeptical as you were bringing this vision together. I have to tell you, you killed it. This thing is bad!

Best of luck this year! I think you have a chance at the overall! I must have missed it, who is co=pilot this year?

Thanks Chad - it was a risk and there are things that can still be improved but I think it came together really well. I doubt I'll ever be 100% satisfied but this is a great start.

And thank you... but to be honest we have ZERO chance of finishing near the top in the overall. We might be better than ever but we're still bringing a knife to a gun fight. My goal is top 20 overall but this year Vintage American is going to be increadibly tough on it's own so a top 3 in our class will be an accomplishment.

And sharing the wheel with me for the better part of 3,500 miles... and 100 plus hours... will be the always incredible Mrs. Mary Pozzi.

More pictures! More Pictures!

Knife to a gunfight? Maybe so... but wouldn't a U.S. Marine Sabre, Knights Templar broadsword, Medieval battle axe, or a scimitar also all fall into the knife category by loose definition of edged weapon?

What you are bringing is spectacular and in the right hands... look out!

I recognize those colors...
