Default Heading to TUNER Car Challenge w C7 Z06

Hi Folks,
LG Motorsports will be heading to Florida for a couple of events for the Tuner car Challenge and one other event. We are building a killer C7 Z06 road race-Street car for this event
Car had 9 miles on it when we got it from the customer who loaned it to us for this event.
stay tuned it should be a killer Supercharged C7 Z06 street/road race car.


The car will have engine upgrades, LG Pro Long Tube Headers, total LG race suspension, including Drop spindles, sway bars, coil over spring set up, spherical bearing suspension replacing rubber OEM bushings, Complete Aero Package, with wing and LG front splitter. PLUS our LG Aero Hood with double the louver size.

Adding BIGGGGGG AP racing brake calipers and rotors, with LG Carbon Dual hose Brake Cooling ducts.
Racing clutch with the 7 speed manual transmission
DUAL LG Intercoolers, external oil cooler, Complete LG super cool radiators and LG GR7 Wheels. Full racing seats and harnesses with harness bar. Roll bar to come later.
This car will compete in 3 events in Florida. First, standing 1/2 mile, then Daytona road course for a day then Sebring Road Course for a day. 3 Days in a row.
Should be fast and furious....Where have I heard that before?

Stay tuned! It all starts in 2 weeks!

It will be a "White Version" of the red car below only Much Better.

I was going to go but got pulled away for another event. It would have been fun going up against you Lou, even though your 46 years of racing experience would be no match for me. Good luck!

Thanks Jason, We have to dust off the Mclaren now for the Corvette community

If our LG Motorsports Park track comes together we should have a great Corvette gathering down here when it is snowing up there

Hi
It is a 3 event shootout in 3 days. Starting at the Wanna Go Fast 1/2 mile run in Ocala Florida, next Saturday. Then Sunday 3 hours to run some fast laps at Daytona 24 hour track Then on Monday the 22nd we move to Sebring Fl to spend the day running laps and a 20 minute timed session and the average time is what they score.

Winner will get a trip to Nurburgring in June to try the car out on the famous track.

Should be fun.

Lou Gigliotti
I personally love Sebring!
