Now for the people to thank
#1 my wife for putting up with a 2 year marathon that I tried to pull the plug on twice and kept me up countless nights.
#2 Kushan @ Excelsior motorsports for building this beautiful machine and proving to me that the wait would be worth it.

Good to see this thing rolling Blake. It's beautiful. Congrats on getting it down to 3350lbs. That's incredible.

 

Congrats!

I hope to make it out there one day to see it in action.

 

Crazy build! Should be a monster.

 

For some wicked reason I want to do that to my daily!

So badass! In for some racing videos!

 

Wow. This is incredible. Looking forward to seeing vids.

 

Nice Job, congrats. Can you get it under 3000 pounds ?

 

I'm shocked that he was able to pull 9 midgets out of the car already.

Impressive build!

 

You should have seen the scales before the engine, trans, and cage were in.

 

Wow that looks great! I always love seeing people go all out on cars like this, Someone on the GTO forum a while back did the same with their car, it was super cool to watch it progress. Did you dyno the new motor? I had a stock MSD atomic on my old LS6 block and it made great power.

 

3350....wow

 

Looking forward to seeing it on the track. Big Congrats!

 

What a build, and 3 pedals at that. I bet she's a blast on the track.

The amount of weight you've dropped is impressive, very impressive.

So like any regular ctsvowners.com member I decided to go full "R word".

Fixed it for you.

Again nice work, post videos of that beast when you can. Would like to see some interior clips too of bangin gears.

 

Very nice build, but it is still so heavy. From Stock the sedan is what 4200ish ? Impressive to get that much weight out of it and down to 3350.Please post some trak video's

 

Looks AWESOME! I am totally jealous. I was considering turning mine into an all out track car......until my wife had to shut her business down That thing is going to be awesome carving turns! Enjoy the hell out of it!

 

Engine dyno added.

After I get the car broken in and enjoy it a little I'll consider a stage 2 weight reduction. There are few more places to lose a little weight.

As it sits I might have to add ballast weight to compete in NASA TT1 anyways

Damn! Those are some serious numbers... especially n/a! I'm assuming those are at the crank...

 

It's come a long way since the last pictures I seen. Congrats on an awesome build!

 

Yes those are crank numbers. Not bad for a little Hydraulic cam .621/.624 235/251 @ .50 113

That is unreal! Nice work.

 

very cool indeed.

 

Wow! Thats pretty bad ass! If only I had the money to turn my V into a track car!

 

What he said. That's an incredible build, any videos of the car in action?

 

I was so geeked up to drive it I never set the gopro up. I'm taking it to Big Willow for the weekend of the 18th and I'll be sure to get some video then.

That'd be fantastic, I look forward to seeing it fly.

 

Holy shit. I'm floored. What a killer build.

91? E85? race gas? What's the compression?

Please let me know if you make it up to Laguna or Sears. I'd love to come drool on it.

12.5/1 and it's tuned for 100 octane. I definitely have plans to get it up to both tracks.
