*** LG Motorsports C6 Z06 World Challenge race car heading to Sebring***
Our C6 Z06 is on it's way to Sebring.
I have been absent from the forum for a while spending time finishing the new C6 Z06 race car.
We are on the way to Sebring Fl as we speak for the first World Challenge race next weekend.
We are not allowed to run the 7 liter engine. We have to run the 6 liter engine but we have 5 Million horsepower according to the rules makers.
(We know that comes from the LG Pro Long Tube headers
)
IF any of you are going to Fl for the race please stop by our LG trailer.
We have the LS2 6 liter engine in for this year. We can not use the 7 liter engine per the rules.
We have to run a restrictor plate in the 90mm throttle body. We have to put a 67.9mm flat restrictor behind the throttle body. The rules also make all the GM cars use the "Grand Am Cam". Our power was off on the Chassis dyno so we put another set of heads on and picked up a bit. All GM cars must also run the GM performance heads which are really bad for power, Plus they crack at #1 and #8 cylinders after just 4 races.
We have to weigh 3100 pounds (with driver in car) and can only have 51% of that on the rear tires.
we hit the track on Tuesday and there will be live timing and scoring on the www.world-Challenge.com web site for all practice, qualifying and race. The race will be this Friday the 18th at 3:45 Eastern time.
Every Corvette in the field is using our LG Pro Long Tube headers
See you there.

That car has come a long way since the last time I was at the shop. It looks awesome! Did you paint the headlight housing or did you install one from a black car?
