    Re: The Lux-0-Barge Gallery....It begins

    The order went in......One mid 11 second Caprice

    1/ Absolute Sleeper..
    2/ Driveability …excellent street manners high on list of priorities
    3/ Noise….exhaust must not exceed the levels of a stock HSV.
    4/ Mid 11 second time slip…..


    BBB 11 is Born......







    Willowbank 14/02/2007 and the car was put through is paces for a base line run with Zero mods / no tune / no OB / no exhuast mods....1st run of the night...14.171 @ 100.25mph in some pretty ordinary weather conditions.......no fear plenty more to follow ........Booked into PT this Thursday..........let the mods begin

    ps........no cause for alarm ..... BBB 1 is still out to better her 12.52 unopened record... PT having now found a few extra ponies at the rear treads over the summer siesta to call upon ..

    rather embrassing point those wheels....untill the good Mr Dicke-Knee pointed out they were HBD optoned from new and matched the HBD plate under the hood, I was about to discard them for 4 spot in favour of some standard Statesman wheels in keeping with sleeper status ....close call

    Re: The Lux-0-Barge Gallery

    yea they are both my cars, i bought the stato just as a cruiser but i think that wont last long as i already have some big plans for the stato, nothing as major as what i have done and am doing to the VL but yea.

    wanna try and pimp this stato out as much as i can, including getting a LS1 edit
