    Default I think I've found my dream car....

    Gary Thomason's SM2 car is for sale:

    My SM2 car is for sale - starting a new project for 2006:

    Black 2002 Z06 with 9700 original miles
    402 cu. inch LS2 engine, 11.2 comp. ratio, Crower rods
    AFR cylinder heads w/Comp cams best springs (921's)
    Thunder Racing hydraulic roller, .600 lift
    two transmissions; LS1 and Z06
    two complete rear ends; 3.42 and 3.73 (brand new)
    Mcleod twin disc w/aluminum pressure plate and flywheel
    Lightweight alternator and small gel battery
    LG Motorsports stainless merge collector headers, titanium exhaust
    Two brand new Sparco Evo seats
    Ankeny Racing delrin suspension bushings
    Pro Parts Koni 2812 double adj, inverted aluminum body shocks
    Two sets light wheels 17x12 and 17x13 w/315's and 335's
    lightweight rotors
    Hotchkis sway bars plus extras
    VBP springs, choice of rate
    Engine management software
    Carbon hood
    Weighs 2905 lbs w/half tank fuel
    Lots of spares/parts
    Easy ASP car with crate engine swap
    Streetable - I drive it to all local events (110 miles one way to LA)

    The car was featured in the Nov/Dec issue of Road&Track SPEED Magazine:
    470rwhp/466 tq on their dynojet. Easily 500+ with two changes.
    11.4 at 128 on Kumho 710's in the quarter, and 3.3 0-60
    1.15g on a dirty skidpad
    78.4 slalom speed
    94 ft 60-0, 170 ft 80-0
    Braking and slalom are all time R&T records. Skidpad was street car
    record, and yes, they have tested several other cars on DOT-R tires


    First place at the 2005 Solo Nationals, including top PAX of the event,
    but I did get dry runs both days

    Looking for $45k for everything. I have the magazine article in pdf, and
    pictures if wanted.

    Drool! That's a whole lot of car for $45k. That's the kind of car that could put a serious whoopin on most of the supercars that are out today.

    Nope. This one is black... and street legal, to boot.
