Have you seen the green master grade kitted widebody TT Z that forged built? That car has been in magazines in both lambo orange and its current lime(ish) green and each time repped forged for the build.

Great video. Shop owner come across as too ostentatious?

I see many first place finishes next year for Forged , that car is awesome and awe inspiring. How long do you predict that engine to last? How many races/miles are on it to date?

Thanks guys. I wear a lot of hats, so I thought GM was the least pretentious of the titles...LOL.

We're going to run the same engine till it stops running. Funny thing, is just before Barber track day, I put in on the dyno, and it made right at 500whp at about 10-11psi...exactly what it made last year. The engine has been really consistent and reliable the whole time. Many teams are going through a couple engines a season, so we are doing pretty well in the engine department.

Hey Lloyd, I would love to do more vids. If only we had someone in-house that was skilled in video editing and production.
