I bought the car in March of this year to use as a track rat. It has performed very well and I daily drive it too. My best time at local road course is 2:41 and for reference, a regional T1 car has gone 2:39. Keep in mind his car has hoosiers versus my r888’s, which in itself could be the 2 second difference. That Z06 weighs less and has 55 hp more (approx). Reason for putting it up for sale is to get a closer to stock Z so I can autocross in SS class again.

Car is perfect as a track car because it isn’t a show queen. 120k miles on the car. Drivers mirror is epoxied into place. Full interior with working HVAC and stereo and power door locks and windows. Car was crashed before I bought it but there is no frame issues; handles like a dream and is very neutral, with a slight mid-corner push. Very easy to drive at the limit.

i spent about $1300 getting the A/C system working. I drive her daily so AC is a must.
Motor is strong and at operating temps, makes 35 psi oil pressure at idle. Thats more than most LS1 cars I see.
I can de-mod the car if someone wants this a lot cheaper.
