The Farm Truck LS1 Sleeper

This is kinda funny and cool in a way

The Farm Truck LS1 Sleeper

JM Photography: 2007 C6 Z06

Beautiful shoot on a black Z06

JM Photography: 2007 C6 Z06

Black cars are always a bit harder to photograph since it's difficult to capture all the lines of the car.  But JM had no issues in capturing the lines when he did a photoshoot on his friend's 2007 C6 Z06.  A follow up photoshoot will come to capture more details, since he ran out of daylight.  Cant wait to see what comes next.  More pics after the break.

Done in 20.6 seconds

NASCAR Pit Stop With Red Bull Racing in Times Square

Just thought this would be interesting to share - something you don't see everyday.  The Red Bull Racing team did a pit stop in the middle of Times Square with a time of 20.6 secs as the crowd looked on.  Not too shabby not having all their usual toys handy.  Video after the break.

03 Procharged Cobra

This thing is a beast

03 Procharged Cobra

Found this sweet Cobra that has just been finished.  The car features a matte black finish, and it's what's under the hood that really shines!  The engine as it sits should make 850rwhp with the small pulley and over 1,000rwhp on the big one. The engine is a fully built by Lawless, who does the top fuel engines for Hot Rod Fuller as well as many NASCAR builds. It's all there to handle 2000hp at the tires if it wanted it.  More pics and full specs after the break.

Geiger 1000hp Corvette

The other mean green machine.

Geiger 1000hp Corvette

This 1000hp Corvette comes to us from the German tuners Geiger.  They were able to strap on twin turbos bringing the HP figure to 1000hp.  It will set you back $269k though, but you do get some German styling with it, including a redesigned rear with a Ferrari kinda look.  I'm not too sure about the green color though.  More pics after the break.

First Drive: Classic Design Concepts Group 2 Widebody Challenger

This is one domestic I would definitely drive home.

First Drive: Classic Design Concepts Group 2 Widebody Challenger

Autoblog has one badass first look at Classic Design Concepts' Group 2 widebody Dodge Challenger. This has to be one of the meanest looking Challengers I've seen thus far. The lowered stance and widebody additions really give the stock "4x4"Challenger something its missing from the factory. The fit and finish of all the parts on this car are above and beyond OEM specs.

So, just what is included in the Group 2 package? For starters, new composite front fenders, left and right spoiler canards (side wings) and rear "billboard" panel and fenderwell extensions. In total, the new body panels add six inches to the width of the Challenger. Not only does it look awesome, but it's functional too. The car can now accommodate 11.5-inch wide wheels at the rear and 10-inch wide wheels up front, enabling better grip for acceleration and cornering. Customers can purchase the package with USW 20-inch three-piece wheels and Pirelli PZero Rosso tires or find their own combination. Other options from Classic Design Concepts include a stainless steel wire mesh grille, sequential taillights and a fully functional shaker hood system, a CDC specialty.

For more information about the vehicle, visit Autoblog for the full story. In the meantime, enjoy these great images.

More images after the jump.

Tunerzine.com: Camaro Black Feature

Tunerzine gets an exclusive from General Motors on the Camaro Black

Tunerzine.com: Camaro Black Feature

Chances are we're staring at the headlights of the next brilliant and quite possibly a savior to GM's recent public woes.  Not only is the new Camaro absolutely gorgeous, but the Camaro Black truly brings back the true American sports car heritage.  The stylish lines arguably make it more exotic and aggressive than its Corvette brethren.  The menacing black shade, 21-inch wheels, and interior upgrades all but fulfill every automotive enthusiast's dream.  We personally can't wait to see these cars invade our market, we fully expect the chassis to be out at drift events, drag events, time attack events and much more.  The true American hero is here, and it is absolutely gorgeous.  More photos after the break and make sure to check out Tunerzine.com for the complete article.
