The ESP Camaro is for Sale!


I'm selling my 2001 Camaro Z28 E Street Prepared as a race ready package with extra wheels, tires, and spares. This is one of the best prepared and fastest ESP cars in the country - ask anyone who has driven it recently (Strano, Brian Burdette, Lane Borg). I am making plans for wheel-to-wheel racing so the Camaro will need to go. 

I have owned the car since Sept. 2011 when I bought it from Sam Strano. Sammy owned the car from new (Sept. 2000) and won numerous F-Stock and ESP ProSolo and Solo National Championships with it. I have finished 3rd, 4th, and 6th at the last 3 Solo Nationals. This year, my pace was hampered by too much inside wheel spin due the diff wearing out so the car is faster than the results show this year. I will purchase a new Auburn Gear Racer's Diff and include it with the car. Other than this, the car is in top shape and ready to race. I recently had it re-tuned by LG Motorsports on their dyno, changed all fluids and had the transmission fully rebuilt by Texas Drivetrain Performance (it had never been rebuilt and too many years of Sammy and I speed shifting had worn out 2nd gear....) so it shifts perfectly now. I can provide dyno sheets if interested. I have won several National Tour and ProSolo events in the car including setting Top Pax at the 2014 College Station Tour. I have setup sheets and notes for the testing I have done in the past three years. Sam has been a great resource in the development of this car too. 

The Camaro is white with a 6-speed transmission. It has 49,500 miles on the odometer. The roof was originally black but I had it vinyl wrapped in white and then applied the blue and orange vinyl stripes to the car in 2012. It is currently not registered or inspected. It is always kept inside my shop and has basically only been used for autocross since I've owned it. In the interest of full disclosure, this is not a show car. It's got some dings and dents, and it was in one accident in 2006 but Sam also won Nationals in it 8 weeks later by a big margin.

$14,250 takes the full package or make me an offer! Car is located in San Angelo, TX. Come buy a fast and fun racecar for one of the most popular autocross classes out there.....one small bonus - no index racing for ProSolo! Please email me if you are interested - DOgburn at gmail dot com. Thanks for the interest!
