Need picture(s) of C3 Corvette pulling the front wheels off the ground
Howdy, I'm designing a banner for my website. Does anybody out there have a cool picture of a C3 pulling the front wheels? Or, any other cool pictures of C3s PERFORMING?

I hoping this year I can get my left front wheel maybe 2 or 3 inches in the air!!! As long as I get a pic, I won't care if I break anything!

Just out of curiousity, what kind of torque and slick size would it take to get a C3 to yank the front wheels off of the ground. Obviously you're going to need a tranny, driveshaft, halfshafts and rear end that can handle the power. Does anyone have any rough estimates?

This car makes about 600hp. It's a naturally aspirated 350 and runs 10.26@128 on 10" slicks with an independent rear suspension, not a solid axle.

I bought the photo and had a T-shirt made with it. The caption reads "SLO POKE RACING"
P.S.
Which would make it easier to pull the front tires off the ground an automatic transmission or a standard transmission? Thanks :)

Oh YOU are the source of that first picture!
I've had that on my hard drive for a while. :D
Any idea what kind of numbers that guy generated for ET and MPH?
