Oh man, the track was blast. I knew half way down the track the first time, that I was sold. This being my first time at any autocross event, I think I learned a lot. I am amatuer at best. Once I popped off the traction control, it was much more linear down the curves. The best time I ever got down to was 40.10~. The car rocks, I just need to hone the skills.
The Z06 in that pic has at least the back end lowered. Having been in the corvette club, I have seen more than my fair share of C5's. I believe that the ride height is actually the same on Z06's as the other. The ride height can be adjusted with the stock suspension to about 1" lower than stock. For about $0. Besides, I'm sure that someone that spend 5K on wheels would spent 3 hours lowering the car. I don't know if my coil-overs are starting to slip but the rear end looks lower than the front end. I think I might lower the front for more rake and better stance.
Awesome weekend guys, good to meet those of you who introduced yourselves. This has been a crazy weekend. 1 run down the drag lanes. A few hours in the auto-x, meet in peeps off elite, 2f2f, all day car show, cruzin' the vard, 5 chicks in the vette for pics, and a canyon run. Truely it doesn't get better than this.
Dark Dragon/Pete, man alive, consider yourselves some good drivers. You can walk all over a modded vette. Congrats guys. I talked to my buddy (Doug) with a lowered '02 Z06. He wants to come out to the auto-x too. So you can pretty well plan on having us both at the next event. Any one that wants to come along for a ride is welcome, serious.
