2009 Cal Club ITE Champion
Uncle Joe's 600ZX is an 'extensively' modified 1994 Nissan 300ZX. After running for years with its original 245 horsepower 3-liter V6, the car is now powered by a 475 horsepower, fuel injected, 6-liter V8. With the addition of extensive chassis modifications by Sleeper Suspension Development, safety equipment, special brakes, Koni shocks and Eibach springs, this 2,800 pound, 6-speed sports car has a top speed of over 170mph. Joe and Crew Chief Jim Sleeper run the 600ZX in SCCA road races at the Auto Club Speedway as well as Buttonwillow and Willow Springs Raceways.
