Rod Posted March 20, 2017 Author Share Posted March 20, 2017 Whatever happened to the evo twins anyway... did either of them get a car running? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MSAREV Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Corvette win at Sebring from.......Pit Strategy. and FYI - the new vettes are not running pushrods anymore.....they've smartened up and are running a 32V , DOHC set-up. Ford GT's were the fastest / best lap times all day. oh well - can't win them all. I'm still not a fan of the twin turbo V6 in this particular car.....but the fact is it does kick ass. On the other hand - the 5.2 V8 in the GT350's are still kicking asssssssss on the track - they better hurry and get the new 5.5L 32V DOHC V8 in the new Z28 Camaro out soon!

Zambroski Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 477 at the rear. I've had it on the track several times. Auto-X and road raced. It was barely driveable on public streets because of clearance issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fun as fuck though. But when this one rode away with the new owner, I didn't feel bad at all. That's when you know the love for something is gone.
