Default Houston - July 31
After a morning of dyno runs and car chat at MTI's shop - it was time for a Hooter's Run...


Nice Lineup...


Nicer Lineup...


Nicest Lineup...


Who are those ugly mugs spoiling the line up?


Darrens really sweet Z07...


It's a Z07 alright..


Really nice touch...


What you are looking at is NOT GM "Factory Stock Orange Peel" - but rather the reflection of that there Viper shaking like a bowl of Jell-O...



A dyno of a mild modded Z06 - headers and mild street cam is all that is done to the car - HP/l seems to take on a new useless meaning whn there are 400+ hp at the wheels..


I can't remember who it was, but one of the attending gentlemen asked me to be sure to post a picture of that "F Body"...


I just cannot get enough of the sight and sound of this Z....

Nice pictures. I wish I could have made it...

Looks like the yellow one incorporated the headlights from the racing Z06 right - no pop-up lights

And that's you right RC right extreme in the lineup - pic 4

are they all Z06's cause the yellow one has the slant back roof or was that custom done? maybe converted to a Z06 and I'm lovin those lights.
Also is the Orange a Custom paint job? it's amazing.
Any LPE's?

The orange and yellow cars are modded coupes. Tuan Le's orange monster car runs a 400ci iron block with a 200hp shot of nitrous..

Holy crap that thing sounds awesome. Any chance you have a video of it screaming down the highway or something? I wanna hear it at full wail!

Oh yea, nice pics! Did you eat at Hooters, I swear to god they have the worst food in the world. All it's good for is hot chicks and beer.
