I think you are talking about the stock ls3 that was in the granatelli motorsports car. That car did sound like a V-6.

I noticed that also on 3-4 LS powered cars. Not sure if it was the exhaust. Even the DSE second gen sounded odd. JA, Penny and a few others sounded smooth.

yeah... the impala was probabaly the most annoying sounding one of them all... to me at least. it was "too" bad on when accel. but on decel. is sound like doo-doo.

Excellent shots, what happened to Kinnan and the factory 5 car? More car than driver?

The rear started coming around on corner entry and he backed it off turn 1, it was an easy get off. He didn't even go that far off the track. I had a good view of it as our group was up in the tower at the time.

The control arm failure certainly isn't good publicity for Factory Five.

Thanks!

Well, I have many, many more... I'll have to put them on a webpage.
