Lingenfelter L28 Pedderized Beast
 

I know this info is in some other threads but this car deserves its own thread!
I am sure Pete will jump in and give the specifics.
I had the pleasure of watching it run in person this last weekend....WOW!:confused0068:
This much I know at the Optima Steetcar Challenge it performed amazingly! The car was built in three weeks and the driver never even had a chance to get more than 10 minutes of seat time before the event. It was also running in full street trim both in the interior, and the 20" Michelin tires.
It was 2 seconds faster than the Shelby track car, and smoked the next fastest 5th gen. Camaro by over 10 seconds on the road course!:bow: :clap: :drool:

I am hoping they bring it out to the Fest this next August, everyone really needs to see this beautiful machine run for themselves.

The video was outstanding. The driver appeared to have a problem with the shifter. I am sure they will get that straightened out.

Would be great if we can get posted all the Gen 5 Camaros and their times.
Lingenfelter has always been a first class company for sure. With Mike Copeland at the helm, it will go very far. Mike is exceptionally talented

Mike is a great guy, and very talented! Graham, and the whole team really busted their butts in a very short time to put this car together! Once it gets dialed in I will bet on the same track it can cut its time by at least four seconds!
The car really is that good!

That's indeed impressive! Congrats Pedders and LPE! I get fully Pedderised in a couple days. Driving down tomorrow for the install of the full Justice package on Thursday!

It would be great if someone in the know could post the build sheet specs including suspension/wheels/tyres/engine/drivetrain/etc.

The vid showed a big gauge on the center console.

I also would like to say the driving was amazing!

Mike,

It was so great to have you trackside for this event. The L/28 did run well, but I promise it will run better. It was a really green car that we will have dialed in and more than ready for Camaro5FEST III at Indy. Fastest 5th Gen by more than 8 seconds is good. Beating the Shelby 'Track' Mustang is better. There is a Vette that I would dearly like to see in second place behind a 5th Gen. This is the home of the 5th Gen Camaro Lingenfelter Brotherhood isn't it http://images.zaazu.com/img/The-Devi...0833-large.gif

:thumbsup:

Mike, sorry i couldn't make it to the Challenge, it would have been nice to meet you.

You just aren't like Mike and I. We are really men that left our women in Texas to hold down the fort. You brought your wife and paid attention to her on Saturday. What a wuss.














Uhhh maybe you are smarter than Mike and I, but we definitely had more fun than you did.

Mike it was nice meeting you at the challenge,and Rob I don't know what to say other than you missed a hell of a good day at the track.

:laughabove: :facepalm:



Should have just given her the credit card and come to the track.
Now if you went shopping with her.....I will have to personally head east and revoke your mancard!:rules: :paddle:

Likewise Bruce, I had a blast with you guys! We just need to figure out how to get some seat time in that car.:D
I wonder if Pete has ever caught up on his sleep? Hmmm .....I wonder if he ever does sleep:iono:
