Don’t touch the cars. I always approach cars with my hands behind my back unless I’ve got a camera.

Touching a car is a good way to get a mouth full of teeth at some events (grudge races, no-prep drags, etc).

You don’t put your belongings on somebody else’s car either. I wouldn’t even do that to my own car, like how…

Ask Lou Gigliotti. He spearheaded a track package for the Z06 with cooling upgrades out the arse. Line a LG Motorsports Z06 up next to a ZR1 and the similarities are staggering.

Lou wasn’t pleased, but then again he’s always had the door slammed in his face by GM even when he was a privateer Corvette racer.

Unfortunately, yes we end up being the finisher shop, sometimes ends up being throw away all the stuff that came in with the car and start over again shop :(

Like just standing there and blocking every single doorway possible...

Late Model Racecraft.  Needless to say, I was greatly disappointed because I had been led to believe they did some top notch stuff before one of their builds rolled into the shop :(

It’s a rare thing for me to have spare time to watch something like that honestly.  Work, side biz, family, etc.  A lot of other things eating up any leisure time.

I’ve been so far out of sitting and binging youtube it’s not even funny. You’re also dealing with content developed with full on professionals behind the camera/keyboards.

Did you click the link? It’s still there:

Good lord, Skid Factory is pretty much us but Texan lol.

Yeah, Binky is a very unique case.

“Don’t pay attention to Tim crying over there. His wife didn’t leave him, he’s our Lucas electrics specialist.”

Yeah, we could honestly do a youtube series at the shop but it would be the most boring fucking thing. 100s of hours of wrenches being twisted, wiring, etc, some more time on the dyno and out the door.

We’d rather be working than interacting with the damned camera.

Happened to another guy as well.

AMP has also shut down/unpublished their facebook page, only to have an enterprising user put up a parody page. It is glorious:

Shops that pull stunts like this is what makes it harder for smaller shops like the one I work for to be trusted by John Q Public. It ends up having to be word of mouth, reviews, results, openness, documentation, etc. You talk bad about these big shops, and you get brigaded by the fanboys on social media to no end.

We’v…

Tophat? Why not call it for what it is.

It’s the problem of the convergent evolution of the supercar.  Quite a few are looking very much the same, they kinda look chunky, squat, vents are usually in the same places, etc.

I hate the fact that I’m only in my 30s and already getting junk mail from them.

Cars like this really make me hope we can get the C7 ZR1 ecus cracked open...

If we could get a TT C7 to pump out 1400 whp, a ZR1 would be even more insane with similar treatment thanks to the port injection piggyback.

Speedlines of that era were just pieces of art.
