Interested in a daily driver that has 476 rwhp on tap, can idle like a stocker in traffic jams, run 11-second quarter-miles, and get 26 miles per gallon on the highway? Working with a 2004 GTO, Rick Bottom and Bill Hahn have combined efforts to build a car that achieves performance and drivability goals that were at one time thought impossible. The partnership of Rick Bottom, of Rick Bottom Custom Motorsports (815/539-6487) in Mendota, Ill., and Bill Hahn of Hahn RaceCraft in Yorkville, Ill., has created this Twin-Turbo, LS1-powered GTO that represents the best blending of an excellent OEM platform and state of the art turbocharger technology. The result is a stunning, high-impact car that should appeal to many performance enthusiasts across the board.
The 2004-2006 GTO sets a high watermark in American musclecars because it is arguably the first thoroughly modern GT car. Its excellent LS1/LS2 V-8 power, Tremec six-speed, independent suspension, and rock solid chassis establish the GTO as a serious contender amidst the competition, domestic and imported. The GTO offers the potential for what can be considered a world class, sophisticated performance car.
The concept behind this Bottom/Hahn Twin Turbo 2004 GTO was to build the ultimate street machine that would catch the attention of the tuner/drifter crowd and concurrently gain the respect of the hardcore musclecar enthusiast.
With the intentional rake, wild graphics, and tuner theme, the GTO is a worthy successor to the legendary musclecar of the '60s. The RK Sport body kit subtly brings the car closer to the pavement. |
