BIKEBOY Posted February 10, 2020 Report Share Posted February 10, 2020 (edited) Took one pic of the new ride when we got it home. Awaiting a few mods in the mail. I’ll get some more when they’re all done. This car is amazing. It’s a lot like my Boss. ‘Course, that’s what they built it for....to compete with it. A few notes of interest.......it’s really heavy, the steering wheel seems too large, the steering itself however, is the tightest and lightest of any car I’ve ever driven. Even tighter than the K-man. 285’s on all four corners, so the fronts track any rut in the road. I’m a mirror driver, so the gunsight windows and the tiny 1/4 glasses are no big deal. Brembos on all four corners, and the same size rotors front and rear. The “Red Hot” paint looks wet in person! It’s a normally aspirated 6.2 with 432 hp (with the optioned dual mode exhaust adding 6) from 426. I have a Holley Intech CAI coming which adds a dyno tested 19 horses. It NEEDS it!! I replaced the Alcantara shift knob with a Hurst style white cue ball already. HUGE difference. The clutch is light and the shift throw (stolen from the ZL1) is short and precise. This car has all the ZL1 goodies on it, sans the S/C. Oh yeah, and current mileage is at 586... 🙄 Edited February 10, 2020 by BIKEBOY Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Red cars are always cool in my book! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

tesgt350 Posted February 11, 2020 Report Share Posted February 11, 2020 OK, Life is getting Shorter, I’m not getting any Younger so I decided that since I had a couple of Scares over the last couple of Years, it was time to get some of my Projects off the ground. With all the other cool projects I have going on, I have decided to add another one to the list, I am looking for someone or a couple of someone’s that can build my Video Game that I designed a couple Years ago and also make it into an APP, if any of you know of someone that can do that, please let me know. I thought I would try here before putting an Ad in the Magazines, Thanks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
