This is a four-year project car. Anthony's goal was to turn a Corvette Z06 into a super car, so he modified literally every part for optimal performance. The paint and body finishing took three months to complete, and includes four different colors of black and Rhino-lined side under panels and underbody. The axles were custom made in South Carolina, and a NASCAR rear end set up-no has zero traction control. After top speed testing, blowing the rear end and three pro chargers, he is now 100% happy with his setup.
