Look for the videos and you will find them on the net.


Reason for selling - achieved goal I was shooting for and now must pass on to someone else. We did it - beat all AWD cars and have nothing more to prove. Dont wait for one to be built - buy this one ready to go and beat your comp!

Quick Car Details: You are bidding on a one of a kind TT build for a 2008 C6 corvette. It will cost 100K plus to rebuild this setup (TT Engine Build Only). This car has won many awards, set records and been in several magazines. The GM engineering team invited the Tx Mile LMR TT Vette to show up to their facility for engineering case studies on speed and wind tunnel testing. I have owned this car for 2 yrs and purchased it from a local guy in my town. He and I have taken very good care of this car. It has never seen rain and always stored in an AC controlled environment. It’s a 10 of 10 on looks and build. It has 5K original miles on the car. 300 miles on the new race motor. I redirected the focus on the car for street performance vs. the TX Mile set up. This is a very fast car – not for the weak at heart. Full blown streetcar /AC & Radio. Please call LMR for more details on this car or call Joel G. 832-397-0022. Serious offers will be considered please text.

Write Up on LSX Nation) LMR TT Vette:
It’s clear from the ZR1 style front splitter and side skirts on Late Model Racecraft’s twin-turbo Z06 that aerodynamics was of key importance in building the high speed ‘Vette. LMR of Houston, Texas has also benefited from the advanced wind tunnel testing of GM’s Aero Lab, a facility that began testing in August of 1980 for such factors as wind noise and coefficient of drag.

GM North America lead design engineer, Thomas Froling elaborates a little more on the aerodynamics testing process at Aero Lab, or GMAL, “The Aero Lab wind tunnel simulates a vehicle moving through the air by moving air past a stationary, instrumented vehicle.”

According to Froling, testing at GMAL is an expensive yet effective process, but it is one that has allowed LMR of Houston to get the most power with the least amount of wind resistance from their Voodoo Blue Z06, “If we charge an outside entity, the cost would be almost $2,000 per hour…This was the first time we brought back a customer’s production C6 into GMAL.”

Our featured video is a recent post from LMR, and it is of Late Model’s twin-turbo Z06 running all out on a loaded chassis dyno.
In this instance, horsepower pulls through in harmony with the aerodynamic effects of the ’08 ‘Vette’s ZR1-based splitter and skirts, as the car makes approximately 1656.1 RWHP and 1352.5 foot-pounds

But LMR’s twin-turbo setup is only the icing on an already radical “cake,” as the Z06 is stuffed with a 440 cube, aftermarket block with modded LS7 heads and a turbo spec solid-roller cam, all of which chases a TR-6060 six-speed with a G-Force 1-6 gearset and quad-disc clutch.

LMR owner Steve Fereday recalls the results from the ‘Vette’s initial aerodynamics test, “The equipment recorded a 0.373 drag coefficient and a +0.023 CL baseline.” After some eight hours of testing and modifying, LMR was able to reduce this drag coefficient to 0.307 while advancing lift to -0.030.

Because of the extensive amounts of testing and adjusting that have been invested into LMR’s super fast ‘Vette, the car has been heralded as the World’s Fastest Corvette to date. It’s another high horsepower feat from the mechanical geniuses at LMR, but it also speaks volumes about the importance of advanced engineering.

Reason for selling – have too many cars and getting rid of some toys - downsizing.

That car is absolutely epic and extraordinary in every way! GLWS!

PS
Whats the next project??????

 

Truly an amazing cars.

GLWS

 

seems a lil overpriced for a base model 2008 standard c6... mods don't add **** for value these days... I'll offer 25K for it.




















:-> lmao.. sorry, figured you would get some bs type of response like this so i thought i'd be first. Utterly an amazing car. Congrats with the recent victories, makes us Vette people very proud!

 

Prob one of the baddest vettes out there. Good luck selling it.

 

The performance and power metrics are outstanding. But you really earn my respect for the apparent quality of the craftsmanship that went in to the build. Exceptional work from every angle, in every system that's visible in the videos.
Very very excellent.
And of course, GLWS. I just wonder what you're going to tackle next.

Thanks for the kind comments gents

Bump for building a dream. However, where do you go to next? Looking at your sig, those are some very impressive cars. I couldn't imagine owning a car this fast then driving a Ford Fiesta or something equivalent for a day.

 

Sold yet.... if not GLWS

 

Im sold... if only I had the coin!

 

This car has been sold for some time now.

 

Not to mention, all the claims from 2012 did not hold true at TX2K13...

 

New owner wasn't at full power at tx2k13 from what I understand.
