Default UTRYD2's 1000hp Z06 w/ Gorgeous Model Photoshoot

My car club www.shockerracing.com has just done a photoshoot with Dan Joy Photo and a complete article about UTRYD2's 100hp F1 Procharged 2002 Corvette Z06 and I just thought I would share it with CF.

"When ShockerRacing decided to do a feature on this wild Z06 Corvette we knew we had to find a model for the photoshoot that would match the attitude and sexiness of the car. Enter Jamie Barwick a linemen for the Legends Football League's Chicago Bliss. We knew that since Jamie plays linemen for the LFL, that meant that not only was she strong but also beautiful... just like Tom's fully built 2002 C5 Corvette Z06.

To say that this build has been a long time in the making is an understatement. Tom began this journey back in 2006 when he picked up this gorgeous Millenium Yellow C5 Z06 Corvette. It had about 30,000 miles on it and was bone stock. But Tom bought this Vette with no intentions of ever leaving her stock! Within the first 6 months, she already had a Heads/Cam/Headers package, a FAST 90 intake, a Nick Williams 90mm TB and a Ram Twin Disk Clutch. This setup made 440rwhp and 400rwtq. A year later Tom still wanted more and his brother "Riski" convinced him to swap the cam to the England Green Whiplash camshaft. After swapping the cam there wasn't enough valve to piston clearance and it wiped out the valve, piston, and the head! This is where the monster build and the quest for 1000 horsepower all began."

I was going to say you should meet us for our cruise on Subday but it's looking like we are going to cancel because of rain.
