Finally got the 'Vette to the track on the weekend at it worked rather well once again.

Over the winter, I removed 45 pounds from myself and 50 pounds from the front (wheels) of the car. Then I added a new carb (850 Barry Grant).

Times drop to a best ever 11.71 on Sunday morning at 117 mph. It was a ton of fun and was only poor reaction time that ended the day for us!

Still havin' fun at track and thats all that counts!

Are we going to see this "good lookin" C3 ride at the Nationals in 2008? We had heard that a few from Canada were going to make the trip to Ricmond for 2007 but then car trouble beset their rides and they were no shows. How about starting to plan now to come race with us!
