More to come as I get the car in my possession. Sometime next week. Winter time is gonna be fun. 1st mod is putting the tiny quatermaster 5.5 racing clutch back in it. And few other things :)

dont reckon i've ever seen a vette like that.

it warms my heart knowing someone is out driving a vette hard instead of some 55+ guy hard parking it in his driveway and polishing it.


Hey, Hey, Hey! Watch that lumping us 55+ guys into one category! :salute:

Meh this place is slow now but really if u know me I'm not one to gloat. Actually I just was at the track with a friend I met from SHO's. Ask anyone who knows me from in person. I've been here a long time and been chasing this for a while. And really this place is wat made me get into auto x and roadcourse. Figure I'd share. I love the my SHO done more than a lot of people here will ever do with one. Didn't know ud have to be a smartass b/c I moved on to another platform. First track day is the 17th and yes I'll probably post here and say how the car and I did. So stop confusing my excitement for bragging.

But yea I guess the new crowd here prolly doesn't care to much, but I dont really care. So really sod off and keep ur opinion to urself Sam.


I'll leave this here just to show u shouldn't jump the gun, haha. Ooo well. Everybody just sod off. I'm laughing at my self!

How many miles on it, and what maintenance/mods does it need ;) I do like this styling way better than the current Stingray.

In any-case..... Damn nice car. I've for years wanted to turn my green car in to a dedicated, trailer only, Autocross car but unfortunately I can't do that without a truck and trailer. It's performance is actually suffering from not being able to be trailered to every event (Lots of weight still in there for some of the street driven, must have, safety stuff).

Do you plan on running those old Continental Take offs or are you going to switch to a Hankook/Hoosier?

Im gonna use them up this year for track days. Owner has like 2 more spare sets. But I plan on running 315 R6 all around. Ive actually heard hoosier is or came out with a new R7/A7. intrigued by the a7 b/c they are suppose to have a much longer life than say just a session or 2 of amazing grip then grip drops off. we will see.

The car was just built last year into an all out track car. And IMO after driving it and riding in it a few times. The car needs fine tuning. suspension wise espicsally. I may ditch the pfdat c/o (espically since they went under) and maybe go to back to an T1 setup. Idk yet. However Im focusing my efforts on weight reduction and suspension. Im going for an mechanical grip car for now and later down the road get into areo. areo is wat all the cool kids are doing nowadays. Blah!

I know....5k easy...... It truly never ends.

Wat the car really needs is a diff cooler and QM clutch put in. That's happening the off season 100%. That and a plastidip paint job. God the pewter color is so boring!
