Two of my favorite cars, nice collection! P.S. What size are the brakes on your Lingenfelter. There mosterous!
Wow looks great the corvette and G500 look awsome to. what was the temp outside when you where washing the stradale. ?
Upper 30's and Sunny ! ..............it was above freezing..........I washed everything today, Then dried down in the Heated garage. Its going to get into the upper 40's by mid week !!!!! A fellow Chicago'in...............I am 45 minutes away in Indiana. Enjoy the coming Weather...........Spring is ALMOST here.......
Oh ya.............Thanks ! Thats a G55 AMG wagon...............man that thing Screams for an SUV.... I have a Horsepower Problem.......enough never seems enough. Hence............."Wretched Excess"
Oh thats a G55 I should have known I didnt see the twin pipes sticking out under the running board. The garage is awsome the Stradale and Corvette are also stunning. For some reason the Corvette wheels and Brembos remind me of the Diablo SV wheels and brembo's never the less great collection and garage. I to am hopeing for spring to go out and do some washing.
just curious.....how high is it from the floor of your garage to the top of the stradale when on the lift?
Beautiful car!! I would you compare the Ferrari Stradale and the Z06...I understand one is much quicker but the feel of the two cars? Which do you prefer to drive and why? Thanks
No....That was a guy out on Long Island. LPE showed me the article as his car was done by them as well, and we have the same engine set up. It is a screamer........will do 0-60 in 2.9 sec 1/4 mile in the 9's
Wow, what an incredible lil' collection ya got there! Looks like you have something for every condition & mood you're in. I've always been extremely impressed with LPE's work and how incredibly clean & inconspicuous the TT install is as evident on your Z06. Great stuff!
Shackman, A friend of mine has the Lingenfelter Vette that was featured with the Blue Angels several months back. He showed me some of his time slips from the times he tested it at the drag strip. It was driven for the testing by Mr. Lingenfelter several months before his crash. Absolutely amazing the things he could do. Congrats on the CS..........
Thanks.... Yea...that pewter car is incredible. Ive seen it down there while it was under works. I know they had it over @ 21st Century....does he have it back yet? Your friend is pushing close to 1100 hp with the bigger turbos, higher boost, lower compression, and HD automatic Trans. (if we are talking about the same guy, and car) The only ***** of it is hooking up...........LOTS OF TORQUE ! Bad news about John as well..........He passed on Christmas Day 03'.........A loss of a very great man and an automotive lengend.
schackman, great pics!! Now you've got to update your profile with another beautiful shot (or two). Regards.
This man lives in Southlake,Texas and has owned a number of Ferraris in the past. He has a 575 now. He has had several of his other fun project cars reported on in magazines also. He had a Tahoe with about 900hp that was featured in one of the mags. He bought a used ZO6 and had Lingenfelter strip the whole thing out including changing tranny to an automatic. Said the clutch had a hard time with the 1000+ hp.
Aren't those monsters only good for the drag strip? 800-900bhp on the street will only burn out the tyres every time you take off.
Its a *****cat around town and even on the street............the boost doesnt come on until 3,000 rpm.........Its @ WOT that things become interesting. Its got gobs of power.........
