Thanks for this thread! I will be following it and learning! Why don't you put the car on a trailer and bring her to the 2nd Annual NCCO All Corvette Show in Norman, OK on August 15th. You guys have already supported the show with an awesome door prize and several hundred, maybe more, vette enthusiasts would love to see it and meet you!


pm me for details!

It's nice seeing the car go back together so much cleaner than the first time as it was a bit rushed through Riley to get the first (and only) car done.

We should be able to run close to 10-12 hrs on one set of pads, depending on the track and the number of yellow flags thrown during the race.
