went a few days ago. Was able to get a ton of nice pics. Here is a taste.

The pistol grip shifter is for real, and looks nice.

The ZR1 and GT-R are both on my radar. Might wind up buying a used Z06 once the ZR1s hit the streets. Lots of the LS7 owners will be migrating to the latest and greatest. The mod potential of the 427 is just HUGE.

Inferno, my dad got on the list a while back for the ZR1.

True, the LS7 has nice aftermarket potential, but the motor has its limits when you talk f/i, which is why it wasnt used. Now, a f/i built motor from the factory with the cylinder walls and forged components to back it up, there is massive power available. With a pulley/tune I dont even want to think about it...:eek:

I tossed my advance deposit on a ZR-1 to a corp truck. Nice pics though Untouchable. ZR-1 will be an awesome machine and it was a bittersweet decision, but I think I was one of the first 10 to toss $5k toward vapor back when it was just a twinkle in Lutz's eye.

The original thought was to re-eBay for $20k profit. The current thought is, if export sales ramp up, to Procharge or TT a Z06. On here, it's risky though, 'cause if I do that I might butthurt SRT10 owners.

Ford has been using the ZR-1 (forced induction) concept in their cars for over 4 years now. It's called the Ford GT, the Mustang Cobra and the Shelby Cobra.

With simple pulley changes, the cars make tons of power on the Whipple/Eaton superchargers.

There are aftermarket superchargers available for the Ford's as well. I have seen ported Eaton cars over 500 rwhp and aftermarket supercharger (Kenne Bell/Whipple) cars making over 700 horsepower to the wheels!

It's a very expensive hobby, but how fast do you want to go?

I guess the Chevy guys were tired of chasing the Cobra guys.

Now for $100k you can beat a $40k Cobra! Congrats!
