Default Katech Z06 Video

Please see the attached video and info on a great car built by Katech.
I cannot recommend these guys any higher. If you want a vette that rocks this world, just give them a call. The only problem I have is traction. It is manageable, but can get scarry at times when I'm going all out. This car still retains a nearly 50/50 weight distribution and has little if any added weight from these modifications. It is naturally aspirated. The Callaway C-16 is overweight and could not touch this car. The future SS aka Blue Devil should be one bad hombre, but I hope they keep it balance and lean. Katech's mod's were developed by veteran racers who know the importance of 50/50 weight distribution and reducing weight.

Here is a video of the car being tested at Road Atlanta for your enjoyment. Also additional info on the car:
