THE BEST of street/strip - 2001 LPE TT Z06...
I’m honestly going to try and keep this as short as I can, but at this point a novel length post is the only thing what would do this car justice…
First, I guess I’ll start with a bit of the car’s history. The car is an original Lingenfelter car, and in the LPE world is known as “Greg’s Car” after the original owner. The car was originally built with a 417ci and a 6spd along with the LPE Stage 2 turbo system. The first owner had the car up here in the north east for roughly 6 years and it became very well known. The car has always been a drive it to the track, run the number, and drive it home type of race car. After a while the car was sold to “Chad” down in MS where it also stayed for roughly 6 years. During that time Chad made numerous changes to the car including the currently engine as well as swapping the trans out for a 4L80e conversion. Chad primarily used the car for grudge racing at Gulfport MS. After a while, the car again garnered quite the reputation and it got to the point where no one would race it and its money making ability stopped. It was at that point that I became the third owner. When I bought the car it had 14,600 miles on the chassis.
Over the past 3 years of ownership I’ve done quite a bit to the car with one goal in mind…completing Hot Rod Magazine’s Drag Week. I wanted a car that could run bottom 9’s on pump gas, get off the track then make a 7 hour drive…without touching it, ever. This year, I was finally able to realize that goal. My 5 day average with the car was a 9.33 at 149mph. Again, this is on pump gas, without make any changes to the tune…ever. Literally the only changes made between street/race were changing to the drag pack wheels and putting in the swing out door bars. I babied the car off the line at each track so the 60ft times were a lazy 1.48 leaving around 2000rpm off the foot brake. The best ET for drag week was 9.29 (x2) and the best MPH was 151mph. In its “race” trim the car weighs 3450lbs without me.
You simply will not find a more consistent, well mannered, well sorted car on this site…let alone one that will run 9.29’s all over the country on 93 pump. In the past year the car has been featured prominently on companies’/automotive sites and as a full feature in the November issue of Vette Magazine.
Below you’ll find a breakdown on what’s currently in the car. You’ll see that no expense has been spared, and frankly…there’s a disgusting amount of money in it.

WHEELS/TIRES
Street Setup
Front - CCW Classics 18x9 with Continental 265/35/18s
Rear – CCW Classics 18x13 (widened for mini-tub) Mickey Thompson ET Street Radial 345/35/18
Strip Setup
Front – Polished Weld Full Throttle 17x4.5 with new M&H Front Runners. This is the very first set of Full Throttle wheels sold to the public, in fact these are the actual wheels used in the initial advertisements. It took 5 months to get these
Rear – CCW 3pc Classics with a custom outer Ultra Lite beadlocks by Beadlock Conversions. 16x10, New Hoosier Drag Radials 295/50/16
BODY
As stated before, there is actually only 17,000 miles on the body/chassis. The car has lived in climate controlled garages and race shops for its entire life. There are a few blemish’s (paint chips ect.) but that’s to be expected from a car this age, and one that’s actually used as opposed to a show queen.
The rear brake cooling vents have been blocked off as a result of the LPE mini-tub kit.
A 5th Gen ZL1 Camaro hood vent has been added. The car will normally run in the 190-198 range all day long during the warm months and never has any cooling issues. The vent was added purely as a “just in case” mod for this year’s Drag Week. We often run for 7 hours plus worth of street driving in the middle of the country in 90+ degree temps so anything you can do to ensure the car stays happy is time well spent. As a side note, this single mod dropped the car’s highway cruising temp by a full 10 degrees.
OTHER
The car drives and handles like a stock corvette, though the adjustable Penske shocks make it even better.
With the stock ZR1 cam there’s no surge at idle or light throttle cruise. The trans is controlled electronically as is the lock up converter, so you simply put the car in DRIVE and go. The exhaust is very quiet, basically stock sounding so there’s no issues there either. The car looks very plain, but lots of time and money have gone into making it look and drive like just a normal corvette. If ever you could call any corvette a “sleeper” mine would be that car. Keep in mind that it also has the full vette suspension and brakes so it stops and turns just as well as it goes.
On the track the car is the easiest thing in the world to drive. Complete the burn out in 3rd gear, shift into DRIVE and stage. Apply the brake pressure and light throttle until the car starts to push through the brakes around 2300rpm. Once it starts to creep forward, simply let off the brakes and push your foot to the floor and hold on. The car goes LASER straight every single time. It doesn’t really start to get moving until just after 60ft but when it does it plants you in the seat. The trans shifts automatically at 5200rpm, so it’s really just a point and shoot driving experience.
When we race we run the same tune that’s in the car for the street. The ONLY changes I make to the car before a run are to change the wheels over to the drag setup and install the door bars into the cage. Literally ZERO other changes are made. Honestly, if you don’t 9.30’s in this car on your first time out, you’re doing something wrong. This car truly is THAT sorted….
Included with the car will be the trailer we use for Drag Week. This trailer has been used for all three of this car’s Drag Week appearances with zero issues. It holds the complete “drag pack” wheels and tires, two 5 gallon jerry cans of fuel and has an enclosed large tool box that will fit just about whatever you need for a week long drag racing event. With this trailer, the only thing we’ve had to actually put in the trunk of the car has been a small bag of clothes for one of us for the week. The trailer started out as a Harbor Freight 4x4 trailer but we’ve extended the tongue an additional 10 inches to help with tongue weight as well as backing up.
CLOSING
The ONLY reason I’m selling the car is to use the money for a down payment on a home. Hard to admit, but I guess everyone has to be an adult sometime, and my time has come. The car truly is everything I say it is and more. The hard part for me is once it’s gone; I know I’ll never own anything quite like it again. The car is well documented, with its performance at Drag Week and otherwise. I have any number of in car videos of the various runs and can also point you to the exact run times during the live Drag Week footage. I also have tons of pictures and also have a lift in my garage so if you want pictures of anything you don’t see, just ask and I’ll get them to you. To really appreciate this car you have to see it up close and in person, so I welcome you to make the trip. You won’t be disappointed. When I bought it, I drove to Mississippi (solo) and back to get it, and it was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. Even if you don’t buy my car….I will say, don’t be afraid to travel for the RIGHT car. You’ll thank yourself later.
Since this post was originally created the motor has been out and fully freshened up and has less than 500 miles on it. While it was out the cam has been swapped to a BTR Stage 2 cam which gained a full 100whp at the same 16psi and at 19psi it increases to a 200whp gain, still on pump gas. This car should be very well into the 8's all day long anywhere in the country on the same street tune. The car is fresh right down to new brake pads/rotors and even tires. You're not going to find another one like it, let alone at this price.

I would also consider a cash+vehicle deal as long as the deal was heavy on the cash portion. Doesn't have to be a vette either.

Thanks much. Seems the vast majority have zero idea what it takes to get a car to do what this one does. Don himself has said it would take close to $80K + the car to recreate this one at this moment.
I don't expect everyone to line up and drop this kind of money into a car but there will be someone out there who wants a 4L80 in one of these cars and at the moment there's only a handful in existence....and this is the ONLY one currently for sale, then add in the full cage in on top. If you've got those on your wish list, this is the only car for you.
On a side note, I love Don. He's a no nonsense guy. He won't fill you full of hopes and dreams just to make some cash. Hell, he's literally refused to do a few mods because they wont improve on things....and then called me an idiot for asking. THAT kind of guy gets my money (even if he doesn't want it) and my business.

If I wanted to fire-sale this thing I could have sold it 12x's over in the mid 40's. I'd light it on fore purely out of spite before that happens. I've already turned down $50K BEFORE it was listed for sale so you gotta do better than that. Doing things like that not only lower the value/worth of MY car....but it also lower's the value of YOUR car too.
Right now, mine is the ONLY one in the country with the laundry list of mods. Its LPE pedigree/past, its proven performance, and (understated) capabilities, and its a magazine car etc etc. All of these things have value...I get that people who haven't tried to do these things won't get that and I'm ok with that fact. However, people who have, and who know.....will.
You can't come anywhere close to what this car can do and more importantly HOW this car does what it does for anything close to my asking price.
On a side note, my favorite flame comment from the 500hp+ FB page was the guy who said he could reproduce my full cage for $500. Buddy, I've literally got more than that ($600) in to JUST the trailer ball attachment hahah. The GTR nuttswingers are pretty comical too. "My GTR runs 10's blah blah blah." Cool bro, call me when it runs NHRA legal, pump gas 9.2s and let me know what your build cost is then

Just saying "Completely sick car" doesn't go far enough. To build a car that quick and that well mannered both on the track and the street is no simple task and well beyond the abilities of the knuckle draggers who are trolling your for sale posts. They are broke and jealous and as they sit their picking their nose and hating on your ad, they have no idea how well built and clean your ride is compared to their zip-tied shade tree jalopy leaking oil in their front yard.
(Yes, I'm trying to sell a really nice car now too in case you couldn't tell.

Thanks for the kind words guys. As cool as it might sound/look in writing and videos they really don't do the car justice. I've seen a lot of hot cars through out my time with Drag Week and I've yet to see one this mild mannered, let alone one that will run bracket like bottom 9's on pump gas. All its going to take is for one person to actually come see it and that will be it.
Just a fun fact....with the first owner and the 6spd in it this car has been 226mph in the mile. Jack of all trades would be an understatement.
I'm excited to see what the new cam will do to it, we are expecting a good amount to be honest. I'm not excited for the bill though, but hey....that's racing right?
If you're even considering this car there is no better time than now. When it's done at SlowHawk it will be completely fresh, as everything has to come out for the cam swap. There will be zero price increase, so I'm basically eating this one. Also, if you're serious about the car, this is the time to tell me if you want changes made while its apart!
