Just rec'd this video clip from Jason at Timeless Kustoms (building a '66 Chevelle and '69 Camaro for me). He will be at GG Columbus in a couple weeks to autocross and compete for SMOTY. Fun to watch.

Looks like a beast. I like everything but the roll bars. JMO. Other than that it is Bad A$$.

I also like it.BUT the roll bars suck.Makes the car look unbalanced.I would build some new bars before the SMOY dudes look the car over.They will keep it from getting in the top 5.

He took it out to run at Buttonwillow a few weeks ago and they would not let him on the track because the drivers side rollbar was too low. Jason lengthened it temporarily. It will probably be shortened for the show. I agree...looks funky. The car weighs under 3K LB's with an LS9! With the AME chassis, it should do very well on the autox at Columbus vs. the other SMOTY entrants.

I think this Corvette is really cool. I wonder if this car has enough modifications to be a contender? The last four winners have been pretty heavily modified to go along with lots of "go": 09-Roadster Shop 62 Corvette, 08-Ring Bros-Razor Camaro, 07-Ring Bros. Reactor Mustang, 06-Johnson G-Force Cuda. Every year the bar gets set higher.

The tall roll bar is for racing..it is replaced with a short bar for street. Takes about 5 mins to change out.
