The Reveal of the Candy apple Hatch (built 30R)

[Chief]

A good friend of mine has been workin on his hatch for quite some time now, close to a year in the making. FINALLY got her done, Complete built GSR, top end is not ported or polished or over size valves, but he did get titanium valves along with springs retainers and lifters. Bottom end is Manley rods and CP 9:1 pistons. OF course thats just the chunk of what the the car has, it has just about everything you can imagine on this car. tuned with neptune. Spoolin a gt3076R. Also gutted just racing seats and dash.

He is on stock trans (gsr) and as you can tell in the vids, 3-4 gear fork lasted one night We only got ONE run, we wanted to to 20-40-60 roll, as well as a in car ride with the hatch, but we got one run lol He missed 4th jammed it in and after the first run, 3rd gear was like hitting a brick wall, So we pretty sure 3-4 fork is bent REAL bad. 4th goes in but its really hard. So we only got one run. But i HAD to make a video, because its such a BEAUTIFUL car, not to mention FAST as hell. made 499 whp on 17 psi PUMP GAS!!! he was blown 3rd gear off pretty bad You can see hes just playing with a high 500ftlbs= troque Z28.

Runnin him was my buddys Z28 ran a 12.7 bascily just bolt ons, and since than he added a 150 shot bottle warmer, O and Drs to, and its auto trans. With many bolt ons, Its not a slow car at all. But the hatch makes it look that way.

Im sure he will be in MANY other videos of mine, Not to mention hes waiting for a srt to get done.... But its a friendly run

I know theres not alot of racing its more less the showing of a real nice car, and its very first race since its ben built.

I thought the video was ok. Having the camera zoom in & out of the wheels/bumper/engine bay is kind of annoying.

Thank you

Sucks cause theres not much 'running' in the video, just alot of show off of the hatch lol. its a stock GSR trans, hes in the same boat as me, lots of power but no way to get it to the ground lol. already bending a shift fork im sure he has one ready to go in though

when he missed 4th and got it in took a little to spool, but you can see he was in it for like 3-4 seconds and the thing was like a damn JET, and he let out of it, I cant imagine if he would stay in it. he would have put CARS on the juiced LS1.

I dont think im gonna keep with this hatch Its cool though, they owner is REALLY cool dude, not cocky in anyway at all, real nice down to earth. I ride bikes with him, and when he told me about this hatch a year ago ive been waiting and waiting and waiting to see this little beast. He said its actaully kinda scary 4th and 5th gear laying into it.
