Every once in a while someone comes up in here mad doggin' g-machines as being poseurs, trailer queens and overpriced garage art. Instead of getting all rabid and/or defensive, let's be helpful. :yes: Kindly direct them to this thread. Post pics, youtube vids, etc. of your favorite action shot. Try to avoid car show or other static type images. Focus on action shots of g-machines running at auto-X, road course, drag strip and touring events--yup even highway stuff. Our cars do it all. It doesn't have to be your car either. Scrounge up as many cars as you can find. The search tool will help. This is just a suggestion. Hopefully, the idea takes off. Otherwise, we'll have an empty action shot thread for the naysayers to reference.
Here's an example: A few years back, Dream Car Garage stated that the Mule might be worth $300K. Well here's $300K dropping thru the corkscrew at Laguna Seca. Suspension is fully loaded; tires beggin' for mercy. I figured I'd start with the Mule to get things going. I'll post Twisted Idiots stuff later.

My car at Road Atlanta. There's a steep hill just prior to these photos. We're heading into turn 12. Before the hill is the turn 10 complex 10 A and 10 B. This section is so fast that there's no turn 11. It goes straight from 10B to 12! And that hill? The crest is completely blind. You stare at sky as you approach the crest. Your first instinct is to keep right. But to get turn 12 right, you need to hit the crest as far left as possible and flat out without any view of the road on the other side of the crest. Total leap of faith.

The only track picture I have of my 91' Camaro. I know it's not taking corners, but it is set up for it !! This photo was just before an all motor 11.97 @ 120.3 pass on a 1.996 60' time, 255/50/16 BFG drag radials... The suspension is way too stiff for drag race, but it handles so well, I refuse to "loosen" it up for better E.T's...

Back when I owned this Vette G machine...I wasn't afraid to load the suspension and let the rubber fly. Just didn't have that many opportunities.

We shot a "how to" video for www.vbandp.com and did some track day footage to open and close the video. We had a the track all day to do as we pleased. MAN! This was a blast!

Tracked at Road Atlanta and Pocono. Camaro Performers Top 10 2008. Air Ride suspension plays a big role in this car's versatility since we can adjust for various wheel/tire combinations and track parameters.

We kicked it's ass.. lol

Just kidding, I have more track shots but his tune was all jacked up (altitude?) so it wasn't running right. It was running the course in the over 2 minute range. He didn't try to autocross.

That car is crazy sounding when it fires up. :willy:

Very cool idea for a thread! I can't believe it took this long for someone to think of it. I drive mine every chance I get! Here's a couple from the Goodguys Autocross. Unfortunately, I don't take my video camera with me everytime I take it out, but would be more than happy to take any naysayers for a ride anytime! Ok, maybe not anytime, there is 3 ft of snow hear right now...sorry:lol: . Actually, I had to unload it from the trailer on a snow-covered driveway a couple weeks ago and got stuck on a basically flat driveway:rofl: I should have video taped that! Too funny...Oh by the way this car is for sale, $125k firm, fly in and drive it home!(I'll throw in some tire chains)

Here's the autocross video.

My car at Grattan Raceway July 2008 coming out of turn 8.
You can see 31 videos from that event and hundreds from other events.
This is one of my favorite inside videos from Grattan showing all 12 turns starting with turn 5 and the tires are just screaming.
This video is lap 10 while I was chasing down a new Lancer Evo. (http://www.adfabdesign.com/RaceEvents/Grattan_7-26-08/Grattan_7-26-08_Videos/Joe-lap10-evo-pass.wmv)

Jim Shipka and his one lap car. Jim ended up winning the Mighty Muscle award.. a pretty big deal. Congrats!

Stacy Tucker of DSE flogging her 69 Camaro.. This year she is sporting a peppy little 416 inch LS3 from Mast Motorsports.

Bret from Air Ride Technologies showing that air-sprung cars can navigate the cones too.

And we were all in awe of Mary Pozzi and her mad driving skills. She looked to be the fastest through the sweeps and she turned in the fastest time of the day of those in the competition. That girl can DRIVE!

I wouldn't call my car a g-machine or a full pro-touring car yet...but it's in progress. Front suspension has been done and a rear bar added. Those parts alone gave major improvements in handling.

Very happy with the changes.. shocks are the same as at Optima but they need to be re-valved or swapped to some adjustables. Most likely either Bilsteins or DSE shocks.

Will be running the car this weekend in Illinois.. at the Bowler event. :woot:

LOVE the Magnum.. it's the sweetest shifting trans I've messed with. The gearing is also much better. In fact I'm putting one in the Track Rat as well. They really nailed it at Tremec on this.

When driving fast - you want to be looking ahead - WAY ahead - and in a corner you want to be looking at the exit even if that means your head is 90 degrees from where you currently are... Your peripheral vision will get you through the turn. This is what my instructors have told me.. anyway. It seems to work. Now, if I could just get my peugeot up to speed...

Car works better on the Auto X without the sway bar---going to try lighter springs on the coil overs then hook back up the bar to see if it improves. The sway bar helps on the open road course though---Might start a thread under suspension on this topic.

Drifters use this rear brake handle to help innitiate the drift. The handles are set up as a push/pull. One way activates the right rear and the other the left rear brake.

MikkoV
01-02-2011, 08:49 AM
Yes, pulling handbrake simply locks reartyres, just like normal e-brake but hydraulic and more effective.

It´s used in one technique when starting slide before entering the turn, or helping when changing direction.

I built the car on a SRIII Motorsports tubular chassis with C5 front and modified C4 D44 rear and adjustable coil overs all around. The handling performance and ride are just incredible......Mike Stockdale builds a very nice chassis.

The car is powered by a modified LS7 (cammed, mild head work, Marcella sheet metal intake and tune by Virginia Speed), Rockland Standard Gear "Tranzilla" T56 and 3.90 gears. Whoa action is from Baer Extreme 6S on all 4 corners. :thumbsup:

Thanks guys!
The track is Arctic Circle Raceway in Norway, very fun track. :D

The car is my 1970 Plymouth Barracuda, originaly a 318 Barracuda, converted to a 340 'Cuda when I bought it 7-8 years ago. I quickly repainted it and added the AAR theme. It is a project that gets developed as I can afford it. First I added the XV Motorsports Level II rear 3-link suspension, then I did the front XV Level II suspension and chassis stiffening kit. Level II 14"/13" 6piston/2piston StopTech brakes with hydraboost. Wheels are Forgeline WC3 18*9.5" and 18*12" rear. Tires are Toyo R888 275/35-18 and 335/30-18. In stock wheelwells! The engine is still the 340, I've overhauled it, but it's no powerhouse, iron heads, small cam, pretty stock. The engine is my next project, but I'm not sure if I'm gonna build the 340 or get a new gen Hemi or do something other. Transmission is a TCI streetfighter 727. I want to convert to a five or six speed manuell. Rearend is a 8-3/4" with suregrip and 3.23:1.
It weights in at 3461 lbs and actually has 54.7%/45.3% weight balance with 3/4 tank of fuel and no driver. An alu headed motor would move it close to 50/50.

As is now, it is a real handler, amazing grip, exellent brakes. But not on par when you talk about drivetrain. I just tought the right way was to make it handle before getting more power.

Bad aise Cuda man. It's got to be touch to get your hands on a 70 Cuda in Norway? Not many around here.

Imported it from the states, had Oregon plates on it. The WPC club lists about 40 Barracudas (all years) in Norway, so they are pretty rare. In comparison the Mustang Club has over 2000 cars listed. Sometimes there is a few cars for sale, but they charge a hefty price. :unibrow: I'm glad I got one. I say like Troy Trepanier: "You ain't got what I got" And that is true about any Pro-Touring car.:thumbsup:

I think maybe he was afraid of all the upgrades to BMF... and now we'll never know... so the dream can live on. :lol:

What upgrades, I haven't seen one part bolted on that car. It would of been time for another restoration by the time that pipe dream came to fruition. :unibrow:

:-) it was fun Gaetano and thanks Ron we try....

Sandbagger, the car is a real 1973 TA with a DSE front sub-frame, Ride Tech 4 link with triple coil-overs over adjustable on a full floater.... the motor is a 475ci injected Pontiac with the worlds first Jesel outfitted CV-1 canted valve heads married to a T56 6 speed.... The seats and door panels are custom upholstered in Cadillac Escalade leather (currently has Riccardo's,,, but still have the matching Sparco white 505's)...Wheels are 18" X 12" 3 piece custom carved interpretations of the Pontiac Ralley II's on 335 rubber all the way around the car.... The front clip/panels are built in Carbon Fiber and the car is for sale BTW
