Jackass and Power Tour pics

[XcYZ]

What a great car. Pics don't do the workmanship or presence any justice.

WOW!!
Thanks for the pics Scott. Looked like an AWESOME time.
JA is a killer looking machine. Totally changes my mind about the color yellow, that's for sure. A lot of nice cars there.:thumbsup: :cheers:

[tellyv]

Great pics Scott, if any of you never tried autox try it its a freaking blast!!! Thanks to Nitto tires for giving us a great place to park. We'll be in their booth tomorrow also:thumbsup: telly

[fesler]

Looks like a lot of fun wish it would come back out the AZ/CA way so we could enjoy it.

[cmraman]

Not yet. I spoke to Jeff and they are still thrashing on it. It'll be in Racine

[Neil B]

Both Scott's and Charlie's cars are gorgeous in person. I saw them both today. Pics just can't capture all the attention to detail.

[69Nova]

Jackass looks great. Random fact the two red Camaros are my friend's cars.

[XcYZ]

I would have taken more, but it started raining and I put the camera away and never it got it back out. I'll take a bunch more tomorrow.


Here you go, Rob. :cheers:

Great pics guys! Scott, I think those pics probably show JA's true color the best out of all the pics we have seen! Have a great week guys!! :cheers:

[89 RS]

Thanks for the pics guys! Looks like an awesome time. Have a good time and keep posting pics.:D

[WILWAXU]

Thanks for the pictures! Missing it already :(

Looks like a much cooler first day that last years!

[6D9]

Looks like a lot of fun wish it would come back out the AZ/CA way so we could enjoy it.


I second that....

[Aschle]

Might as well make it a 3rd ! :D

[MaxHarvard]

I have roughly 700 photos from the autoX event. What the hell do I do with them all? :willy:

[GregWeld]

I agree with Fessler -- it would be so nice if they'd make a tour out on the BEST COAST (LOL) once in awhile. There's plenty of great cruising out here - the weather COULD be better - and there's certainly enough vendors to support etc.

Thanks for the great pics!

[SRD Art]

Fantastic pics, thanks for sharin'!

[MaxHarvard]

Here's the first batch of close to 700 i took out there :)

I'll get the rest posted here in a few days.

I shot every single car that went through the AutoX line. Some more than others, especially if they went through the line 50 times *cough cough RideTech!!! *cough* LOL :thumbsup:

[fleetus macmullitz]

Thanks for posting Max and feeding hungry eyes here. :D

Nice work.:thumbsup:

[Steve1968LS2]

Nice work on the photos Max.. sharp but still shows action.

Did you crop them or cut off part in the shot?

I see Kinan's car is done.. he's been riding my a$$ about it and how it's going to destroy me at the optima event. Looks pretty bad ass.

Wish I were there.. sigh...

What were the fast times at the auto-x?

[waynieZ]

Nice pictures . Thanks from those less fortunate..

[Aschle]

Steve - Thanks for the compliments. I have to admit, the only one that is cropped is the last photo, the rest of the photos are straight off of my camera. :)

fast times were low 27's. An Atom showed up (i have photos) and blew everyone's doors off and it wasn't even trying that hard... you could tell he was barely getting on the throttle.

I got photos of EVERY single car that went through the AutoX, roughly 170 cars.

Nice pictures . Thanks from those less fortunate..

Thanks :)

Post them all ! :D

Jason

In the next day or two you'll get to see all my photos on my website.

[xplantdad]

Very cool pics! Scott...Give Lillard and Tibor a (nice) hard time for me...:D

[kochevy67]

I agree they should have it out in Sunny Arizona, I was in Racine today and the wind was blowing right off the lake. It felt like early April. I would love to post the pics I should of took but my Dumba** took my memory card out of my camera and forgot to put it back in. Maybe somebody else can post the pics from Racine if they have any.

Did any of you guys see the Ring Bros. booth with the Razor in there. Those guys are pure craftsman, the interior is drop dead gorgeous.

Did any of you guys see the Ring Bros. booth with the Razor in there. Those guys are pure craftsman, the interior is drop dead gorgeous.

...and super nice guys. Telly (black Cuda from autocross pics) introduced me to Mike and Jim Ring. Great guys, really down to earth.

It was great talking to you Scott. Have fun the rest of the way. Who is going to keep an eye on Charley when you go back home?

[nvr2fst]

Hey Scott,
Are the pictures of the vehicles on the street at the beginning of your pictures in downtown Racine. If so I didnt even realize there were cars up there. I though they were all down by the waterfront.
Who all ran at Great Lakes prior to the rain? Was this an afterthought because there was no autox in Racine.
Dave

[nvr2fst]

Looks like a Factory Five '33 Hot Rod.

Great pics of course Scott...more JA please inside, outside, underside! :wow:

This rod was sweet and built very tastefully. Love the ushrod suspension front and rear. Great contender in the autox.

[Aschle]

That yellow new SS is the best looking new Camaro I've seen ! Damn, I keep telling myself that I don't need to buy a new car................:_paranoid


Jason

[89 RS]

Man, that looks like a blast. Keep the pics comin'.:D

[MaxHarvard]

Man, that looks like a blast. Keep the pics comin'.:D

All my photos are on my site :)

[XcYZ]

Dave, yep, all those cars and people were up in the streets of racine, away from the waterfront. It was a lot warmer up there. lol

Well Ill be #@%* It looks like I missed half the show. 1/2 the time spent talking to the Mike Ring and the other half waiting in line for hotdogs for the kids. I guess if I would of cut through town instead of driving the short cut I know to the waterfront I would of noticed all the other cars.
At 10mpg with the truck I would have burned a tank full trying to cut through that crowd LOL

Thanks for posting those and for the shout-out, Scott! I've been dying to see that car and it's a huge career milestone to have our wheels on a Hot Rod magazine project car. I'll hit Rob up for some content for the website as soon as he gets back in the office.

[steemin]

Thanks for the pics Scott!
I have a ongoing conflict during the Power tour :mad: .
Someday I have to make it!

Look how much lower your cars sits versus JA...bigger wheels maybe?

[jannes_z-28]

Hey Scott,

Can you enlighten us on what happened here. Found it on Yenko.net and Ken said you lost a bolt in the lower control arm. I am curious can you tell us more?

Glad it didn't happen at speed.

Holy hell...didn't look like it caused any body damage hopefully,coulda been a whole lot worse.
Sorry to see that Scott...

[Vegas69]

Damn it!:willy:

[Rybar]

Holy crap! Everything ok with the car Scott?

[Teetoe_Jones]

Please tell me that didn't happen because of the rear LCA bolt being in single shear.

Tyler

[wiedemab]

Please tell me that didn't happen because of the rear LCA bolt being in single shear.

Tyler

I hadn't noticed that until you mentioned it - Tyler. I just looked at the pics. Whatever happened, I'm glad that the damage doesn't look to be too severe and everyone is OK.

That's scary stuff.

[XcYZ]

Nah, looks way worse than it actually was. The rear LCA bolt that threads into the frame backed out. Jacked it up and threaded the bolt back in and back on the road in minutes. Only when I backed up with the wheels at full lock did the fender extension get bent. Kurt is already painting a new one for me.

Hey, it's Power Tour. Lol

Safety wire is your new best friend.... Glad that is all that it was. It could have been much worse.

BTW-What's your Dad up to with that so fine 'Five Seven?

yep - work sucks but sometimes you have to do it. Indy GG isn't looking good either.

57 - what 57 ??

No he's taken to a few cruise nights and I took it to Deriks car show at his Dad's shop. But other then that it's just collecting dust. :mad:

I am going to try to bring it home this weekend and clean it a little and maybe raise the front end and inch

Morgan - I love your car

Yeah, I agree Marty, that is a really good looking car.
I was talking to Morgan at the Summer Nats in Worcester last year. I love the color green he went with and the red line tires set it off. It was one of my favorites there.:yes:
383 stroker with 500 horses.
NICE CAR!!:lateral: :cheers:

This is the new background on my computer. Is it just me or does it scream "this is pro-touring". It's just cool! :thumbsup:

[XcYZ]

We made it home yesterday afternoon. Kevin and I left Detroit metro at 6am local time, drove through all the construction and toll booths in Chicago, bumped into Tim from Paradise Road Rod & Customs and talked for a bit, stopped for gas 3 times, had lunch, and got home at 3pm local time. With the time change, it was a 10 hour trip. 660 miles in just under 10 hours averaging 66 mph. We were making good time. lol The car was averaging right around 21mpg on the way home, too.

Aside from that bolt backing out, the car ran great.

Rolling into Detroit. That's one big tire.

[BBC71Nova]

We made it home yesterday afternoon. Kevin and I left Detroit metro at 6am local time, drove through all the construction and toll booths in Chicago, bumped into Tim from Paradise Road Rod & Customs and talked for a bit, stopped for gas 3 times, had lunch, and got home at 3pm local time. With the time change, it was a 10 hour trip. 660 miles in just under 10 hours averaging 66 mph. We were making good time. lol The car was averaging right around 21mpg on the way home, too.

Aside from that bolt backing out, the car ran great.

21 MPG :wow: . I really really want to stay BBC but that MPG is soooo tempting. I think I'd be dreaming if I thought I could get 15MPG out of a <500ci BBC even with EFI.

21 MPG :wow: . I really really want to stay BBC but that MPG is soooo tempting. I think I'd be dreaming if I thought I could get 15MPG out of a <500ci BBC even with EFI.


We ran the One Lap Camaro in the Nevada Open Road deal.. running 100 miles, 90 of them at tripple digit speeds, we nailed down 20 mpg.. lol

Gotta love the LS engines.


Maybe next year I can hit Power Tour.. it's on my list, just wish it was a bit closer.

Bummer, you guys aren't going to Bristol :(

What kind of gas tank is under jackass?

[Ricochet]

21 MPG :wow: . I really really want to stay BBC but that MPG is soooo tempting. I think I'd be dreaming if I thought I could get 15MPG out of a <500ci BBC even with EFI.

I'm feeling your pain as well!! I'm so far into my project with BBC there really isn't any turning back. Next car though...No Brainer - LS?!!

11.50's, 21 MPG & bullet proof dependability - You can't go wrong!

[Desert68]

The Jackass Camaro is just so right. I have a question about the tubular cage/brace/downtube coming forward from the firewall. Just out from the firewall - the connection of sorts - is this so they are removable? Interesting setup. What sort of mechanism is that? Does the other (front) end have the same mechanism? [Edit] I studied the picture a little more. It looks like a bung welded to the end of the tubing, both ends, then one bolt through the top and another through the bottom. Is this correct? Who makes these things?

air to water intercooler?

Looks like a Bosch air to water intercooler pump.

Mike Moran had his Pro-Mod at the Detroit stop. I've never been around a Pro-Mod before; I was surprised how hard the motor hit for a turbo motor when he started it.

I bought a set of them copper caps myself for a certain plain brown wrapper. :D

wow thats some serious coin just in fittings alone.what kind of times does this thing run?

[ironworks]

Scott that is one of the smoothest sounding Cars I have ever heard. Did you see the methanal just flowing out the exhaust. That is one bad dude.

At the Street Car Super Nationals last year it was running low low 6's and I heard it has ran some high 5's this year. I guess that will do.

This Challenger looked great with the bulged fenders and quarters. The deep lip gave the car some attitude.

http://www.lateral-g.org/temp/Challenger.jpg

[XcYZ]

This is a complete C5 Vette with 68 Camaro skin stretched to fit. It had the C5 interior and a Harrop to top it off. The craftsmanship was fantastic.

The billet filler followed the compound curves of the top of the quarter.

Nice face lift on the Challenger.

Not a fan of the front and rear styling but obviously quite a Camaro and an interesting build for sure.

I should have been specific on that Camaro's rear styling. Its that 'stub' spoiler that detracts IMO.

Awesome motor, a BBC cross ram! :thumbsup:

And here's a pic I took of an autographed pic with Arnie The Farmer Beswick racing Richard Petty. This picture is being hand delivered to Richard Petty for him to also autograph. As I understand, this was the last pass Richard Petty ever took as it ended in disaster, injuring 7 and killing a kid at a crash in Georgia in '65. (a drag racing history buff would know a lot more, this is just what I was told) Anyways, lots of history, thought I would share.

I agree!!! Very nice car. Morgan's car, the green 68 convertible is a really nice car as well. I got to see it in person last summer. It's got a 383 stroker with 500 horses.
Thanks for posting Skip!:thumbsup:

[fleetus macmullitz]

I don't know other than it looks like an OEM air cleaner on it, so it could be a real 302 car.:cool:

I'm assuming that your referring to The Nova(Notorious) from Rad Rides? Somewhere in the thread on that car, it's mentioned that they mounted the supercharger in the core support backwards.

Hey Morgan! It was cool meeting up/talking again this year. The '10 Camaro looks good. I still can't get over how people came flocking over to it when you pulled in!!:wow:
(Even if the '68 was filthy, it still would have looked better than all of the other cars there! She's a beauty.):thumbsup: :cheers:
