Re: pics from INDY... 2011... from sheehan
 

WOW! We may have a combo best appearing/enginered winner.

Re: pics from INDY... 2011... from sheehan
 

X2 On the combo winner! Thanks Tom, great shots!

Re: pics from INDY... 2011... from sheehan
 

WOW,that is a great looking Chevy!

Re: pics from INDY... 2011... from sheehan
 

Great pics as usual, but I'm pretty sure Arnie's new car is a 2011. I dunno, I'm a Chrysler guy, what do I know! JIm:rolleyes:

Re: pics from INDY... 2011... from sheehan
 

Man Arnie's car is BAD AZZZ!!!!!!
Tom Thank's for the great pics and good luckl!!!

Re: pics from INDY... 2011... from sheehan
 

Nice car but I'm having a hard time seeing at it as a Super Stocker.
I don't know Arnie, but with all due respect to him, it seems to me that he can afford Pro Stock, so why bother with Super Stock?

Re: pics from INDY... 2011... from sheehan
 

Frank, just because Arnie has money, he should run Pro Stock?? Then I guess, Gary Richards, Irvin Johns and alot of other competitors should run PS too?? I guess they like SuperStock, and thats why they run that class.

Re: pics from INDY... 2011... from sheehan
 

If I won the lottery today, I wouldnt even dream of running pro stock. I'd build me a couple of awesome super stockers. My hat is off to all the folks at Indy. The cars look amazing. Thanks so much for all the wonderful pics. You do a great job Tom and good luck to ya.

Re: pics from INDY... 2011... from sheehan
 

Stefan,
No disrespect intended and I'm not being judgmental of Arnie.
I'm just throwing it out there because I don't know him.
It's a beautiful piece and I sincerely wish him luck with it.
I guess I'm just an old school Stock/Super Stock guy showing my age.

Re: pics from INDY... 2011... from sheehan
 

X2 Stef,

Congrats Arnie, Speedco, The Allen Bros, & the gang at Haas race cars for building one "drop dead" georgous race car!

Re: pics from INDY... 2011... from sheehan
 

In my opinion this is a more credible looking Super Stocker than many of the Modified class FWD conversions, and certainly no more radical than most of the SS/AH cars. Granted the airbrushed tailpipes don't fit the tradional mold. The only other possible negative to me might be what the car may look like with the hood on.....a big scoop with that low roof line might make it look like a Pro Mod!

Did you notice that the interior includes a factory console with original gauges? There's a lot of attention to detail throughout this piece.

I give Arnie full credit for getting a new style Camaro out on the racetrack.

That scoop is pretty subtle compared to some of the anteater scoops on other cars. Thanks for the "followup picture" Tom, and for all the other pictures too. Great shots!

Re: pics from INDY... 2011... from sheehan
 

love the new SS/BM Camaro ! How did it run ? Is this the only new racing Camaro ? ladies and gentleman we have a combo winner of the best of both awards

Re: pics from INDY... 2011... from sheehan
 

I'm not a big fan of the new camaros, but Arnie Martel's looks awesome. It won't be as fast as a cobalt because it's so much bigger, but I like it.

Is this the new RO7 engine in Arnie's Camaro?

Re: pics from INDY... 2011... from sheehan
 

looks like as splayed valve to me.

Re: pics from INDY... 2011... from sheehan
 

Keep the pics coming, Tom. Great work as usual. Good to see you and your Dad at Cecil. The in-car camera for class was a great video.
