Track day sponsored by a local ford dealer. I'm in one of the few GM cars (two camaros, one corvette) that showed up.
https://vimeo.com/45772822 17 sec clip.... Full vid soon. Costas cars and such... (IMG:http://www.witchdoctormotorsports.com/host103.jpg) EDITED: Instead of making new threads, I'll just keep adding on to this one :-) This post has been edited by Shortcutsleeping: Sep 6 2012, 01:37 AM |

Off the top of my head (and not giving away the full details that Costas might want kept somewhat secret), lets just say 700+ hp and 2500 lbs. I'll leave it up to Costas if he wants to be more specific than that. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) |

Thank you for the kind words everyone....the car is indeed stupid fun to drive and pretty quick on the track. I call it my smile-machine.
No matter how much I wrench on it or have to work on it, I still smile the instant I get on track with it.

We discussed multiple versions and I thought this was the final one? |
