Yeah, I was really surprised to see that. The guy did not have the hood open, I'd like to find out what power plant is in that thing as well. (P.S. there are about 10 pictures that are not uploaded yet so check back)

That SPECTRE company had four or five really nice cars (the el camino and camaro specifically) and then some really weird shit (that truck and that awful riveted on fender flared Aussie pile of roo shit) I'll be posting more pictures today provided the weather is a little better. I believe we are going to stop at Matt Kenseth's Museum, Great Lakes Dragaway, and then the lake front in Racine. Talk to you guys tonight if I don't see you today!

You either saw us leaving for lunch or heading home because my Dad opted to spend the night at home to save a few bucks since we are going the full distance to Bristol.

I was there with the turbo neon, very surprised how many people were looking at my car and asking questions. Very cool group that just enjoys different cars and is not shy !!!

This is my first time going to the power tour, I'm only doing mad-town and Racine witch i will be leaving soon for.

Wow, that is really bad ass!

I was hoping it had an LSx motor, but that makes it even more bad ass that its the ZR1 LSx motor. :headbang

On one of the spectre cars, it had a proportioning valve on the power steering lines. Anyone know why?

On the Spectre truck, a flyer said it was built as a push vehicle for their F40.

I personally think that Spectre Dually truck was pretty cool. It is a push truck for Bonniville Salt flats. The air bag system for the bed is realy neat. It takes a lot of work to make a working dual rear axle system.

The G35 coupe? If so, it's an automatic with a supercharger. We ran briefly and he only inched away from me at best. I wasn't impressed since I am stock besides a filter. He ran into me at GLD and said he put down 400whp and has a built trans and a higher stall converter. He ran a 13.6 that day :confused

Yes thats it. He tried me too. He was about a car ahead and took off and I ran him down and waved as we went by. His friend was laughing as we waved!:rolf

It wasn't that fast. I ran him down pretty quick and passed him. It did have a supercharger on it though. He wouldn't come back up and try again. He hung back for a little bit then pulled over. I think he was crying because he got beat by a "stock" camaro.

She was the model for the company that was doing the photographs as you entered. They were walking around doing photo shoots on alot of cars. It cost extra I think 35-50.00.
