Default New Hood from LG Motorsports

Hi Guys,

We have quite a few new products coming out this spring. THis is our new hood. It is the 3 louver version of our original center louver hood.
It should be available in early spring and we also plan on a carbon fiber version.

Our race team may not be running a full season this year so you can expect me to "channel" my racing ideas into products for your street and track Corvettes.

If you need it for your Corvette, we have it.

Thanks

Lou Gigliotti #28

2011 racing season is still up in the air. We are talking with a couple of potential team mates but as you all know, in this economy, sponsors are few and far between.
And the ROlex Series, on a modest budget will run around $800k to a Million.

There is a possibility that we will do the Rolex 24 but beyond that, it is up in the air.

Thanks

Hood For the C5 may be coming later but we are focused on the C6 version right now. LG

Any provisions to prevent rain from entering the engine bay when the car is parked outside on a rainy day?

Our current Center louver hood has the rain tray included. We have not decided on the outer vents yet on this one.

I will check,

keep in mind that we will be producing this in a full carbon and carbon/glass also, and for racing, we can delete the inner ribs and really lighten it like we did on our Rolex Car and it only weighed 9 pounds that way.

Thanks

we don't know the price yet. It will be competitively priced for sure.


We have been trying to be well inside the price range on as many new products as we can. Our Drop spindles are now almost half price from the original because we paid for tooling to have the parts extruded to cut waste and extra machining costs.

Thanks

I'll have it on the scale as soon as Lou hands it to me. A stock hood is 32-35lbs. FYI.
