Awesome vid! Thanks for that.
Hows your driveline cope with those kind of launches?

Hi Simon,
I've always been a fan of your car, and this just shows why. I was amazed and the gear changes, barely dropping below 6000rpm! and damn did that thing launch! Congrats on an excellent time

Interesting to observe from the inside the traction required for an 11sec pass. Astonishing! I must say, from the sound I'd never have picked it as an LS1. Those gauges seem like they just can’t wait to claw their way past the 12 o'clock mark. Well done!

Simon's car is just awesome. I've witnessed the progress since Simon bought the car. It's an awesome sight to watch. The vid? I'm downloading it now
Change the bottomend! It's screaming to have that 6800rpm limiter removed.
