Feel free to ask me any questions about the car : sharleen.norley@manlymail.net .

For sale is a 2012 Hennessey HPE 650 Camaro. I ordered the Camaro 2SS brand new from a local Chevrolet dealership
in the summer of 2011 and had the car shipped directly from the Chevrolet factory to Hennessey Performance in
Texas. After all modifications were complete at Hennessey I then took custody of the vehicle in December of 2011.
While at Hennessey I had the base HPE 650 package installed on the car (a detailed parts list for this package can
be found on the HPE website.) Additionally, I opted to have a more aggressive tune done on the car which voided
Hennessey's standard 3 year warranty but I wasn't overly concerned about that and the car has run beautifully
anyway. When dynoed in December of 2011 at Hennessey the car made 578 RWHP. Additional modifications done at
Hennessey include: Camaro Carbon Fiber Driveshaft, Driveshaft Shop High Performance Axles, Camaro Chasis Max Brace
by Hotchkis, Hotchkis Camaro Adjustable Sway Bars, Hotchkis Camaro Strut Brace and KW Coilover Suspension Variant 3
which lowered the car approximately 1" and gave it a much more aggressive stance.
Shortly after I received the car back from Hennessey I took it to No Limit Incorporated of Baltimore, MD for wheels
and tires. While the car was still being made I custom ordered four Savini Mono wheels with matte black paint,
20x11 in the rear and 20x10 up front. The wheels are wrapped with Pirelli P Zero tires, 305/35/20 rear and
275/40/20 front. After I had owned the car for about a year I noticed that the paint on the factory body kit was
starting to fade slightly and in my opinion it ruined the lines of the car. After Chevrolet told me that they
wouldn't fix the problem I took the car to D&V Auto Body of Dulles, VA to have the body kit paint re-matched to the
car. The new paint job came out flawless and has not shown any signs of fading due to the high quality paint used.
While the car was at D&V I had Seibon Carbon Fiber front splitter, side skirts and rear diffuser installed. I also
had a custom black vinyl racing stripe put on and had all exterior badges removed from the car. At this point the
car still had the original axle back mufflers and it really restricted the unique growl that this engine is capable
of producing. I took the car to Atlantic Autosports of Virginia Beach, VA and had a Magnaflow axle back muffler
delete bolted on to the cat back exhaust that Henessey had already installed. The exhaust note of this vehicle is
extremely loud. Other minor upgrades include an MGW short throw shifter, 35% window tint and a Speedhut SST Max
Shift Light. I also have an unused Burton short throw with white 8ball grip that I will throw in as well.
Since the day I took the car home it has been garaged and has never spent more than a few hours in direct sunlight.
I completed a disciplined break in period and the car has always been thoroughly warmed up before being driven. I
have never drag raced or taken the car out to a track day. I have routinely changed the oil with Mobile One full
synthetic every three months regardless of whether the car has been driven or not. The interior of the car is
completely free of any cosmetic defects and looks and smells new. The exterior of the car has one small blemish on
the passenger side rear view mirror that I have been unable to buff out on my own. It can likely be repaired at an
auto body shop for a couple hundred dollars, I just haven't had the time to do it. I have all of the work orders
for modifications done on the car along with the original dyno chart and some service records, all can be produced
upon request for verification purposes. All said and done the car has nearly 50K invested on top of the price for a
brand new Camaro 2SS (42K). I am selling to free up some funds for another project

Mother's Day Suggestion No. 2,506

Thu, 02 May 2013

With Mother's Day coming up, we're always looking for new gift ideas to celebrate the occasion, but hot laps around a track might not be the best suggestion for Darius Khashabi. In a video posted on YouTube, Khashabi straps his mom into the passenger seat of his C6 Corvette Z06 for some laps around Sonoma Raceway (formerly Infineon Raceway) at "60 percent" with comical results.
Now this isn't the first time Mama Khashabi has gotten seat time in her son's car around a track, as his YouTube page shows him pulling a similar stunt - with similar results - around Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca last year. Scroll down for the video, but know that the action really gets going at around the 1:40 mark.

Ford GT dominates Le Mans qualifying, gets slapped with performance adjustment

Fri, Jun 17 2016

Fifty years after Bruce McLaren and Chris Amon drove the Ford GT40 to victory at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, Ford is poised for a historic return to the Circuit de la Sarthe. The new Ford GT took the top two qualifying positions in the LMGTE Pro class, and four of the top five. Ferrari's 488 filled in the rest of the spots in the top seven, the first two from AF Corse. In other words, we're primed for a reboot of the classic Ford-Ferrari feud at this year's race. Or not, as the ACO, which organizes the 24 Hours of Le Mans, announced sweeping pre-race Balance of Performance (BOP) adjustments this morning that make this year's GT class anybody's race. In LMP1, last year's overall winner Porsche locked up the top two spots with the 919 Hybrid and will lead the entire field at race start. Toyota's two-car factory effort followed with qualifying times 1.004 and 2.170 seconds behind the pole lap. Audi rounds out the manufacturer-backed LMP1 class in fifth and sixth. Full qualifying results can be found here. The storyline for the GT cars is perfect - some say too perfect. Ford's class-leading times came after BOP adjustment to the Corvette Racing C7.R before qualifying. BOP is intended to level the playing field in the class by adjusting power, ballast, and fuel capacity. (Check out this explainer video for more, or even just if you love French accents.) But the process is riddled with unknowns and ripe for accusations of sandbagging. That is, if the Ford cars were intentionally slow in practice they could hope for BOP adjustment to improve their race chances. On the Corvette side, last year's GTE Pro winner went from the top of the field to the bottom, barely improving from practice to qualifying. If you think Le Mans is as rigged at the NBA Playoffs, well, it's not that simple. Because if Ford and Ferrari held back until qualifying - the eighth-place Porsche 911 RSR is three-and-a-half seconds off the class pole time - it was a pretty dumb strategy. This morning, the ACO tried to put things back in order by limiting the boost in the Ford GT's twin-turbo V6 and adding 11 pounds of ballast. Ferrari was also given extra weight but allowed more fuel capacity. The Corvette and Aston Martin teams were both given breaks on their air restrictors, which will allow their engines to make more power. Both Ford and Porsche also received extra fuel capacity.

GM recalling 686k Lambda-platform models for hatch repair

Fri, Jul 10 2015

General Motors is recalling 686,287 units of its Lambda platform crossovers. On models equipped with a power rear hatch the system can potentially fail. This campaign includes the 2008-2012 Buick Enclave, 2009-2012 Chevrolet Traverse, 2007-2012 GMC Acadia, and 2007-2010 Saturn Outlook. According to GM's documents to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (as a PDF), dirt can get into a portion of the strut that holds up the hatch and cause the part to prematurely fail. There's a redundancy in place called the Prop Rod Recovery system that's designed to shut the liftgate if there's a malfunction. However, if the breakdown happens too quickly after the hatch is opened the prop rod might not work the way it's supposed to. If someone were in the way of the falling liftgate, they could be hurt. For the repair, dealers will update the software for the power liftgate actuator motor control unit to prevent the hatch from closing so quickly. They'll also check the operation of the system afterward.

The affected vehicles, equipped with the power liftgate option, have gas struts that hold the power liftgate up when open. These struts may prematurely wear and the open liftgate may suddenly fall. CONSEQUENCE: If the open liftgate unexpectedly falls, it may strike a person, increasing their risk of injury. REMEDY: GM will notify owners, and dealers will update the software for the power liftgate actuator motor control unit so that the motor will prevent the rapid closing of the lift gate, free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule.
