This is the second set of races between are cars first set we threw out. 3 races this night the 2 major ones in the video.
First race is not in the video i pulled a car by 140ish. Zr1 hit rev in a gear. Listen to him shift AMAZING!
Second race is the first in the video in my opinion we were dead even when i went up on the rev limiter but i held it there too long and he pulled ahead.
At this point we decided it was 1-1 so a third race was in order i turned the rev limiter up because i thought for sure i could pull him up top (you are all prob laughing esp if you know anything about a 06+ corvette Zanything) He iced his engine down for about an hour and i taped some lines off on my car to pass the time.
Third race i started about a half a car back because i didn't get lined up in time and when he hit it he said his TC came on i think they canceled each other out evened out the start and the race continues like the ones before(damn close) until the magic happens
Thanks to Stan at engineered victories for a sick setup that runs consistently.
thats impressive
id like to know more bout your car/setup
i wana line up against a zo6 either c5 or c6 or both just to see
dont know bout killin a zr1 though
well...................................maybe with spray....................and 1/4 mile only
Rear end has been holding up to everything i throw at it but i havent used the trans brake 1 hit off that and it will be toast i know that for sure. Alot of failures i have seen in 10 bolts is improper installation of ring and pin etc Stan at EVI who built my car has been doing rear ends for a long time.
What's it like driving around with a NASCAR built motor?
Prob. no different then me driving around on a 383 with supercharger and 12+ lbs boost.
Prob. no different then others driving around on small blocks with tons of boost from turbos.
Prob. No different then others driving around with built gen1's,gen2's gen 3's , ls1's etc.
SB2 just happens to be one bad a$S flowing setup that can put down awesome #'s and get it done.
I think a SB2 built would last a hell of a long time on the street. Its not screeming at high rpm 24/7 like it is on the track in a nascar truck.etc..
The valvetrain on the SB2 is fairly "one time use only" type stuff, but you are right, as long as it is not screaming around a track, it holds up fairly well... He has put quite a few cold starts, etc through this, for a few years without issues so far.
The drysump is a bit of an annoyance for streetability...
