1100whp with bolt-ons and the stock fuel system? Palm Beach Dyno is performing black magic on their 2020 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500, making 1100whp and running in the 9s, with only bolt-on modifications and the stock fuel system. This wild pony finds traction and looks great riding on Michelin Pilot Super Sport front tires, Mickey Thompson ET Street R rear tires, 20x8.5 Forgeline one piece forged monoblock GS1R front wheels finished in Black Chrome PVD, and 18x11 Forgeline forged monoblock GS1R Beadlock rear wheels finished in Black Chrome PVD with Gloss Black bead lock rings!

What was exciting at the 2020 Holley LS Fest?

Launch sequence activated? Greg’s Chevrolet C6 Corvette Z06 was built to move very quickly in a straight line by Dayton, Ohio’s Proxses Tuning. It makes well over 1000whp, thanks in part to a Procharger supercharger, and finds traction through Mickey Thompson tires with 17x11 Forgeline forged monoblock GS1R Beadlock rear wheels & 18x5 Forgeline one piece forged monoblock GS1R Skinny front wheels finished in Transparent Smoke with custom-finished body-matched beadlock rings!

The new hot ticket? Word is getting around that the Forgeline forged monoblock Beadlock technology is lighter, stiffer, and stronger - all while offering more brake clearance and virtually unlimited custom finish combinations. Tim King’s Chevrolet C6 Corvette Z06 is tuned by Dayton, Ohio’s TK Performance and is ready to rip off the line with Mickey Thompson tires on 18x5 Forgeline one piece forged monoblock GS1R Skinny front wheels and 17x11 Forgeline forged monoblock GS1R Beadlock rear wheels finished in Pearl Gray with Gloss Black beadlock rings!

When you want to move very quickly in a straight line? Tim King’s Chevrolet C7 Corvette Z06 is just flat-out awesome (as in, “inspires awe”). It was built by Dayton, Ohio’s TK Performance, is powered by a 1150whp Edelbrock-supercharged LT4, and rides on 16x8.00R18LT & 325/50ZR15 Mickey Thompson ET Street R tires, 18x5 Forgeline one piece forged monoblock GS1R Skinny front wheels, and 15x10 Forgeline forged monoblock GS1R Beadlock rear wheels finished in Transparent Gold with Gloss Back beadlock rings!

As part of a full-scale embrace of the motorsport drag racing market, Forgeline has introduced 18×5.0 inch one piece forged monoblock GS1R “Skinnies”, at the 2019 Performance Racing Industry Show.

Similar to the original road racing version of the GS1R, the new 18×5.0 inch “Skinny” version of the one piece forged monoblock GS1R is precision-machined from a single forging of proprietary 6061-T6 aluminum alloy. But unlike the original road racing version, the “Skinny” has been re-engineered to be optimized for drag racing applications. This includes not only the narrower width (which necessitates a unique narrow forging), but a full set of revised performance metrics to make the 18×5.0 inch GS1R “Skinny” as lightweight as possible.
