Vyper 240Z Kicks Off 2026 at FAT International Ice Race

Shawn Bassett kicked off the season with the Vyper 240Z at Fat International Ice Race in Big Sky, marking the car’s first appearance of the year—and its first time ever on ice. Snowbanks, frozen track surfaces, and mountains in every direction made it one of those places that instantly reminds you why you build cars to drive, not just to look at.

All weekend, the LS-powered 240Z was wide open. Sliding, scrapping for grip, and ripping around on ice with zero hesitation. Shawn was grinning the whole time. First event, first time on ice, and exactly how you want to start a season: loud, sideways, and in a place that feels unreal.
