ya the players editions ones are the ones that were raced prior to being sold. They were 1LEs too but they had a motor with a higher output than the 350s, there were only 97 made in 91!!! ME WANTY

[iroc22]

Keep in mind there were player's cars before 1LE's came out....A4U

[79 Z28]

ya but it wasnt a "player" ;D

The engines in the Players Challenge Series cars (R7U - or A4U before 89) were no more powerfull than any other 305 of the same production year. The engines in Players cars were hand assembled and dyno tested to make sure they were all as close in power as possible so the series would be competitive. There were no special parts or modifications to the engines. A different PROM (chip) added a rev-limiter and eliminated the VATS (antitheft) system on 89 and later cars.

And just to add to that, the bolts on the engines were painted as well so that you could not remove any of them without it being detected.

[Mark_ZZ3]

The Players Series ran from 1986-1992. There was only an Eastern divison in 1986, and it expanded with a western division in 1987. There were approx. 90 Camaros and firebirds built each year with an average of 20 Trans Am to 70 Camaros built. There were no 1990 cars built as they were all 1991 model cars, hence why the 1991 production numbers are higher than other years. There were very few 1992 cars built as you could run a 1991 car in 1992 with only an engine change. In prior years you had to run the current car, but could use last years car as a backup.

The 1LE option was created as a directly result of the Players series (and also due to the US SCCA racing). 1LE was essentially heavy duty front brakes. In 1988, all Players cars came off the assembly line from the heavy duty front brakes ... the first equipped! Some early cars were delivered with the brakes separate. In 1989-1992, all Players cars were option code R7U, which is basically a marketing package. This was put together in late 1988 by GM after getting input from all the drivers. A group of options was then put together and the only choice a driver had was color. Some of these options included power windows, locks, mirrors, stereo ... and of course 1LE! In prior years, the drivers could select different option groups (of course, no A/C or T-tops). The option code was A4U. There was yet a different code in 1986, but all 1986 cars had the L69 engine which was the only carb'd year.

Many of the cars met horrible fates and were destroyed. Many are still actively racing, although do not resemble what they were. And still many are out on the streets. Very few are still in original shape.

If you would like more detailed information, please drop me a note.

[IROCNParts]

welcome to the site mark! thanks for signing up
I want all your documents :)

[Dan92Z]

is it true they painted the bolts? ???

[iroc22]

is it true they painted the bolts? ???


Well I believe when the engines were assembled they painted the bolts so that you couldn't change the camshaft or whatever for more power and an advantage over the field.....it's called showroom stock for a reason.

[IROCNParts]

yep the bolts on the intake were painted yellow.
they were manufactured in a plant in Van Nuys California

[FormerR7UOwner]

I used to own a 91 Players 1Le R7U car, I sold it a year and a half a go to a guy in Burnaby, he has two now. I have some pics of it still but I can't post them, if anyone wants to post them for me that would be great and everyone can see them.

My "old" car was purchased from Flag Chev/Olds and was sponsored by Motomaster for the series. It was driven by a guy named Frank Allers. It was all stock with all the regular 1LE/R7U, the only mod was a roll cage was installed by the previous owner to me.

Karl Hunter knows which car it is, the buyer took it to him to check it out and verify it. He may have more details now and if the same guy still has it. I wish i knew about this site earlier as i had a tough time trying to sell it because nobody really new what it was and figured I was bullshiting. anyways let me know if someone wants to post some pics so you guys can all see them

[Bristol]

I thought the roll cages were installed before. I think I met you once. Do you live in Richmond? I wish I knew it was for sale....

[FormerR7UOwner]

Yes you met me at a party in Richmond, I saw your car in the members rides forum, and was like hey that's the dude from richmond. The cages were installed at the time of races but were taken out when they were resold I believe, can't remember now, out of the car loop for a while now, into toyota 4x4's now

[IROCNParts]

do u remember who u sold ure r7u too?? ME WANTEE

[IROCNParts]

nevermind I know which it is
you sold it to a guy name Guy.
he wants $25000 for it

its alright... has about 95,000kms tho... too high for $25000

[FormerR7UOwner]

Yep that's the dude, wow he wants 25,000 for it. He must have put a whole shit load of work into it for that price. It did need some work when I sold it to him but holy shit, seems a little high. When I bought the car it only had 49,000 km's. do you know what he has done to the car? He said he might put the ugly players decals which I gave to him back on the car. Is he on this board?

[iroc22]

A year and a half and he put 50,000 on it? did he drive it to Newfoundland and back several times?

no I think he toldme he didnt have the internet. If yours is the white one, then no,if its the blue/green one, then yes...

[FormerR7UOwner]

A year and a half and he put 50,000 on it? did he drive it to Newfoundland and back several times?


No, when I bought it, it had 49,000k and when I sold it it had 85,000? I think.

Yes the white one is mine, he wants 25,000 for the blue/green one? He told me he bought it for like $7500-8000, scored good on that one, somewhere up north.

Was that maybe 2 years or so ago? I remember a R7U for sale in like 100 mile house or something for a reasonable price and I believe it was blue/green.

I want one bery badly, lol so If u see another for sale let me know!! thanks

[FormerR7UOwner]

I can't believe no one else saw my add in the Buy and Sell a year and a half ago, Guy was the only one who came and looked at it. It ran for like a month or so. I had it advertised first at 13,500 then down to 12,500. Geez guys I could have had a major bidding war here, and probably would have got more than what I was asking......DAMN IT!!!!!!!! >:(

[IROCNParts]

so u sold IT FOR $12,500? Did you put it in as a player challenge car

[FormerR7UOwner]

so u sold IT FOR $12,500? Did you put it in as a player challenge car


No, didn't sell it for 12,500 and yes it was in there as a 1Le R7U Players challenge Camaro, the few people who called didn't even know what it was, so I had to explain it and then they figured I was bullshiting

Shit I didn't even pay 12,500 I paid less. Yes it was a pretty car, major eye catcher and babe magnet let me tell you lol!
It has a dope sound system in it too, I got A&B sound to do a custom job on it. 2 Alpine S-series 12's in the trunk with custom box with matching carpet, Sony X-plode 780 watt amp. JL 6x9's and 2 alpine 4x6's in the dash with the top of the line Alpine deck in 2000 which was like $800 just for the deck, man have those prices ever come down. I wonder if he took the system out? Oh well life moves on, at least I can say I did own one at one time in my life. ;D

[IROCNParts]

asshole ;D

[Bristol]

Im kinda curious how many were written off and how many were crashed in the racing series??? I also am curious if those cars were number sequentially? So if you had one you could say "this is #1 of 97". Does anyone know if any of the Camaros were #'d??? I really wanna know what number mine is ;D

[Bristol]

Hey, does anyone have any pictures of a cage from the R7Us interior...like the routing and where it bolts to the floor etc.?

[FormerR7UOwner]

Yup, I still got pics of mine, can't post pics here but if someone wants to do it for me.........Actually it is not a very good pic, but I can tell you or show you where it is routed

Look at the last six digits of your vin#...If I remeber the last 3 tell you what number your car was as it rolled off the assembly line.....for instance I remember the last six of mine 177292, so I believe mine was the 292'nd ILE of the line, Players cars I think they never numbered??????

[Bristol]

Hmmm. But were all 1LEs produced in a batch sequence. Also being that there was only 478 in 91 with 175 being 350 autos I wanna really find out ;D

Actually I guess that doesn't make sense, I don't know man try a search with GM. I know you can do a search with GM on how to tell what number your car is on a website by decoding your vin but as far as 1LE's and players cars go, I don't know

[iroc22]

Heres plenty of info for ya, mark_zz3 guided me to this site when I was tryin to figure out whether my car was a A4U or not. http://members.shaw.ca/tunedportinjection/1988_trans_am.htm

[Hunter Motorsports]

IROCNParts:

If you are seriously interested in a Players car - a friend of mine is selling his '89 TransAm It is one of 2 delivered for the 1989 Western Canadian Players Challenge Series. It has all the original Players stuff - Exhaust - Suspension - Engine - Wheels - Tires - you name it, in addition to a bunch of other good stuff like adjustable ride height - Koni Shocks - Custom 17X10 wheels...

E-mail me if you want more details. HunterMotorsports@Hotmail.com

[IROCNParts]

hey Karl
I appreciate the heads up

what im looking for is a 91 R7U. Preferably with the decal package, but it is not necessary. If you come across something like that please let me know asap. Im looking for a decent price, but if a car is gorgeous price shouldnt matter.
thanks!

[Hunter Motorsports]

Finding Players (R7U) cars is not easy - for any year. Finding the decal package is almost impossible these days. I only know of a couple of cars that have any of the decals remaining on them. As far as finding specifically a 1991 - well of course that makes things even more difficult, cause you are limited to only about 100 or less cars that were produced IN TOTAL - Camaros and TransAms. Half are gone - wrecked - crashed - or whatever, so there "may" be 50 left in the world. Who knows what kind of condition they are currently in. I know of several 91 Players cars personally... Most were raced HARD - and have the body filler to tell the tales. The cars were crashed regularly in the series, and they were fixed as quickly and as cheaply as possible to get them back on the track for the next race. If you find a car with winning history - it also has been bashed. Gauranteed. Finding a car that is straight means it may have run mid-pack at best - but you get the better car. You have to decide how picky you are going to be about the history - and the car, cause you can't have both. My car has no winning history, but it does have all the original body panels. Same goes for the 89 TA for sale.

What do you intend to do with a Players car anyway? What makes you want one so bad? Just curious.

put it in his living room and put a glass bubble over it ;)

[IROCNParts]

i appreciate all the info! thats great to know. I know of one gentleman locally who has 2 of them. I dont know the crash history of either but im sure it has happened lots. Lol. I really just want to have one as a collector. Basically I really dont see myself driving it on a regular basis. Its a fascination with them and as you say, there were only97 built in 91. I gotta keep my eyes open.. I dont really need another car to park in the garage, but if I find one I would almost immediately snatch it up
::)

[Mark_ZZ3]

There is a 1991 for sale near me. 42,000 original KM, never raced. 1LE R7U car. Blue in color.

I sent you an email on it.

[player 88]

I just bouight an ex players car that went on to SCCA firestone Firehawk series, won it's class at the 12 hours of Sebring and Ron Fellows drove it a bit. I will be using it for SOLO 1 and some local road racing.

it has gutted interior so are there any other places where the RPO codes are listed? or can I get if form GM via the vin?

thanks

WOWOWOWOWOWOWOW

thats amazing

does it have PBR rear brake calipers or Delco/Morraine ones?

[IROCNParts]

WOWOWOWOWOWOWOW

thats amazing

does it have PBR rear brake calipers or Delco/Morraine ones?


should have PBR fronts and probably delco rears... but the wont be 1le rears! thats awesome! congrats on the purchase! in 87-89 they seemed to gut the interiors
kinda lame but oh well
call GM and pay the few bucks to do the vin search. You wnt have an R7U you should have A4U or A4O I think... cant remember

A4U ;)

In 87-88 I heard they used all kinds of brake setups(all the way from Corvette to Caprice 9C1 brakes), but Ive never seen a real A4U so all I can do is listen to what everyone else tells me lol

but Mike you're prolly right, it's prolly got dual piston PBR's

[IROCNParts]

meh its possible im wrong
I know of an 87 A4U that has PBRs tho.. so I assumed the 88 would too...

[Steven Kee]

It has 12" fronts with the dual piston PBR, the rears are aluminun PBR claipers with 11.65" (?) approx.

the origianl engine is gone, it got "windowed" at the track before me, it has a 350 now +.060 over approx 300 HP. fresh T-5, Hawk Blue front pads and Hawk HP PLus rears. AF Coil springs with adjustable spring perches, KONI sport shocks and struts, griffith aluminum radiator. Full cage, new Kirkey seat, Leaf harness, It does 1:37 's at Mosport.....now I have to drive it that fast!!!! LOL!!!

I wil be racing it in SOLO 1 and hopefully some GT events.
let meknow if anyone wnat specific pictures of anything.

Ill say!, got way more then I bargend for, no to re-create what it once was! 8)

gotta like finding something so rare for such a great price as well! :D

[IROCNParts]

son of a bitch you got a killer deal on it
If I were u ID try to go back and figure out who used to own it
then see if u can get paperwork for it and some pics of it from race time etc.. they are worth more when they have documentation

[Chris_88_Camaro]

i happen to know of the previous owner to myself that traded it in. ill talk to him and find out any info that i can. mabe just mabe he will know who owned it previous to him!

do u know roughly how much track time the cars usualy saw?

depends on car
yours might have never seen the track/had the cage installed
check the floor for holes, check the carpet for cuts, check the body kit for cutouts for the side exhaust

[Mark_ZZ3]

Wow that is a nice find. Another Player's car discovered.

I know the sister car to IrocNparts (next sequential VIN) was sold a year or so ago to a person up in Fort Mac ... or somewhere north of Edmonton. It was a red car. Not sure if the owner knew it was an R7U or not ... just a 1LE. If by some remote chance that is you ... then I know something about that car (IE. who raced it).

Looking at your VIN, I don't think yours is that car.

Yours is a 1990 model year car (I can tell by the sequence number). So it was probably raced in the 1990 year, and could have been raced in the 1991 and 1992 seasons. IF so, your engine will have been replaced with a newer crate motor.

Most of the 1991 cars will have had a new series engine installed. You need to check the VIN stamp on the block to be sure. A crate motor will only have the build date and engine code: As an example:

The coding was: V0124CLW.

V - Flint Engine
01- Build month
24 - Build Day
CLW - Engine code - 1991 LB9

If your lucky enough to have the VIN stamped, then you could say it is a number matching car ... but a series replacement motor (no VIN) is the next best thing.

If you want to document your car, the first step is to order a GM vintage package. ABout $45 bucks. It will tell you when it was built, what dealership, option code breakdown and most like the number of R7U's built (important for your appraisal ... if you care about that).

Once you find the dealership out, then you are only a few steps away at finding out who might have raced it.

Sounds like the previsous owner might know it too.

... if your car was raced in 1991, then it might still have the race prom in it. The last race cars had them. You can tell they are race proms if the prom has the same yellow/white paint over the window of the PROM. Another tell tale sign is your shift lights comes on a 5200.

If you want more details on R7U ... drop me a note. I have lots of info.

Mark.

Yours is a 1990 model year car (I can tell by the sequence number).* So it was probably raced in the 1990 year, and could have been raced in the 1991 and 1992 seasons.* IF so, your engine will have been replaced with a newer crate motor.

Most of the 1991 cars will have had a new series engine installed.* You need to check the VIN stamp on the block to be sure.* A crate motor will only have the build date and engine code:* As an example:

The coding was: V0124CLW.

V - Flint Engine
01- Build month
24 - Build Day
CLW - Engine code - 1991 LB9

If your lucky enough to have the VIN stamped, then you could say it is a number matching car ... but a series replacement motor (no VIN) is the next best thing.

If you want to document your car, the first step is to order a GM vintage package.* ABout $45 bucks.* It will tell you when it was built, what dealership, option code breakdown and most like the number of R7U's built (important for your appraisal ... if you care about that).

Once you find the dealership out, then you are only a few steps away at finding out who might have raced it.*

Sounds like the previsous owner might know it too.

... if your car was raced in 1991, then it might still have the race prom in it.* The last race cars had them.* You can tell they are race proms if the prom has the same yellow/white paint over the window of the PROM.* Another tell tale sign is your shift lights comes on a 5200.

If you want more details on R7U ... drop me a note.* I have lots of info.

Was this the car you were speaking of Mark? Tom's red car...was this thing an R7U as well or just a 1LE?

Apparently some young kid from Ft. Mac bought it. Sadly he didn't care what the car was, he just wanted something to drive the hell out of...

Wonder if this car is still around? It was mint.

Ya that was it. It was either one before or after Mike's car in the sequence number in the VIN. If you had to own a pair of R7U's ... having them in order was just cool.

I wonder if the white one next to it is mine?

[Mark_ZZ3]

Yes that was it. The picture is from Three Hills. The black on to the right is a 1991 5.7L 1LE car.

I think I have a few snaps from three hills and the World of Wheels of this car. I completely forgot.

Check your email Mike.
