Doing it the old fashion way
I snapped a couple pictures during a scale and alignment that we did on a pretty stock Z06. As you guys know the car is damn good out of the box, but it always can be better. We also slammed in some SRF and off to the track he went. Just felt like sharing today
We do offer this service to just about any type of car, but we know the Vettes well. This is our 15th year doing it this way!!! Maybe two thousand cars or so have been across these scales. Minnesota is where our base is, but cars have been shipped from Chicago, Iowa, VA, TX, Washington just for us to work our magic....

So, instead of rolling the car (in between alignment adjustments) you just lift up & settle down?

Pretty much. We give the car a few bounces. Once the car is down we like to leave it there and go under it for adjustments. Not fun but is the right thing to do. We have the ramps for the scale fixtures but they are a huge pain.
