There is a link to his vid of the 12.2 motor pass. With a little more tuning i think an 11.0 on spray is very possible.

VERY nice car!!!

Suggestions:
Some 2 tone leather seats with pewter accents would look great to replace those stock cloth seats.

The subs look out of place, I would sell them and go with a single sub in a stealth box. I did and it looks much cleaner and sounds just as good.

Definately need a remote bottle opener

Overall I give the car and I would definately give you a trophy if I was a judge

i figure it's one of those retro items that looks good. kinda like the American Racing TT II wheels. they're that classic/old design. and it seems that a whooooole lot of people like em. so i think the badges are catching on like the wheels.

although i feel like it'll come to the point where almost everybody has them...and no one will want them anymore...at least not as much then...

yeah, but unlike the torque thrust wheels the badges don't look good, the old 69 cars had sharp lines and lots of chrome so the badges got sharp lines and lots of chrome also, but the new cars had curves and no chrome so the new badges have curves and no chrome, the new badges look awesome, I guess people are just trying to be different put it looks gay.

i see what you're saying about the style of the badges and how they don't exactly fit the styling of the car now.

but i guess to each his own...

The car is very well thought out.... the workmanship and care in doing the mods looks GREAT. For those of us old enough to remember the original "Z28", the retro badges are an excellent touch..... hard to see why anyone would even suggest that they are "gay"......... not sure what that even means.

Its unlikely that anyone will like each and every feature that someone else puts into a "custom" car.... if you like them, say so, if you don't like them, offer constructive criticism.... but to revert to a childish comment like "looks gay" simply reveals an immature mind.

JMHO
