dublin14 Posted June 1, 2011 Report Posted June 1, 2011 Just got back from IndeMotorSports Ranch. Mypal had a suprise when we went to pick up his car and i saw the new setup.. The car is basically a 2800lb GT1 CR with a 760hp Katech LS7 engine, tranzilla dogbox and 3.90 gears ect ect. Pratt & Miller had some imput on this car as well. Second time at the track in this car and first time at this track, so I was not going hard unless I had her pointed straight. All I can say is what a beast and a such balanced car even with no TC or ABS at all. Its a monster. Inde is a 2.6 mile very complex track with 21 corners, blind corners, and 100 ft elevation changes which makes for a tough track to master. Even so, my pal came first in TTR. The Stock car is friends with a Methanol LS3 750HP and the guy in the pick is my friends mechanic that was our DD as well. Great guy and a Corvette genius. Not great vids, but a few in car later when my buddy puts them on YT. http://s779.photobuc...sanvideo086.mp4
Burn-E Posted June 2, 2011 Report Posted June 2, 2011 Remind me why you drive a Volvo as your project daily driver? :lol:
VolvoForLife850 Posted June 2, 2011 Report Posted June 2, 2011 What a car! Sounds like a blast! My uncle professionally raced Corvettes and owned a Chevy/Mazda dealer in Ohio so I have always loved Vettes with a passion. I can't imagine the experience driving that thing around on that track...sounds like it was hella fun!!!
FCP Euro Posted June 2, 2011 Report Posted June 2, 2011 I would love to take that vette for a spin. very nice.
gmsgltr Posted June 2, 2011 Report Posted June 2, 2011 and you chose a volvo outside of this... lol! looks awesome! i would get myself in trouble driving that!
Matchbox22 Posted June 2, 2011 Report Posted June 2, 2011 this had to be pimp, funny yesterday I was over @ Speed South who also race vettes and the shop was filled up with all types of LSX motor madness.
dublin14 Posted June 3, 2011 Author Report Posted June 3, 2011 and you chose a volvo outside of this... lol! looks awesome! i would get myself in trouble driving that! Well not just any Volvo... my Volvo But then again a track built race Vette with 760hp and 2700-2800lbs is another world.
ErikS Posted June 3, 2011 Report Posted June 3, 2011 I searched this team, your name is Gary, right? You race GT1 Corvettes? How are you connected?
dublin14 Posted June 3, 2011 Author Report Posted June 3, 2011 I searched this team, your name is Gary, right? You race GT1 Corvettes? How are you connected? What are you talking about? Its a privatly owned car and my friends car at that? I go down and have fun at track day events. I have said this all before.
ErikS Posted June 3, 2011 Report Posted June 3, 2011 What are you talking about? Pretty clear what I asked, sorry if you cannot understand. Do you want me to repeat myself?
ErikS Posted June 3, 2011 Report Posted June 3, 2011 What are you talking about? Its a privatly owned car and my friends car at that? I go down and have fun at track day events. I have said this all before. I dont where you trying to go with this. Ah, so you don't race GT1 Corvettes like you say you do, your friend does. You have a killer mod list on the S70, I've searched and never found anything on your build. Care to share?
dublin14 Posted June 3, 2011 Author Report Posted June 3, 2011 Pretty clear what I asked, sorry if you cannot understand. Do you want me to repeat myself? WTF is your problem? Its a my friends privatly owned car, not a race team? I also never said I race GT1 corvettes?? Its based on a GT1 Corvette. My friend races Time trial and I go down and enjoy it at track day events. Just for fun pal. Infact check out ProAuoSports TTR results and he came first for last weekend.

Would like to see a build page on the Volvo someday.
