Horney's still at it...

I recall back in '97, his black TA was one of the fastest LT1 cars around Atlanta. I even hauled my 94Z to his shop (which closed a few years later) to have work done on it.

He certainly hasn't lost the bug.

WOW!! That thing is insane!!! I started laughing when I read this from the article;
The car has not been back on the rollers since, but Will and John of Atlanta Performance stated, "it can easily make 1500 horsepower to the tires." Will told us that "the car is a blast to drive. It'll spin the tires on the highway at three-digit speeds."
