  • Attn: PN.. How's the new vette?

    How's the new one, and how does it compare to the Z06?

    Thanks!

    Hey, I absolutely love the car. I lowered it today. It handles so nice, runs so strong like it has a big block in it. It's so stable and quiet. Too quiet. haha


    I'm staying away from the comparisons until I have broken it in and got some serious seat time.

      Too sweet, too!

      I might be willing to move to KC if you hire me as your personal mechanic.

        You lowered the car Norm? Just how much can you really lower a Corvette? Did you lower it for cosmetic purposes?

          Well, you can only lower a Z51 car about 1/2 inch without cutting the bushings. I'm going to tear into it and lower it further this week when I do my first oil change. Then I can go to the rev limiter. You can lower a C5 with the FE4 suspension almost an inch with the stock bolts. It varies on which suspension option you purchase.
          Here is a shot I took this morning. Just for fun.

                I get that a lot. My standard answer is...

                If you are female, cute and available, I'll adopt you. haha

                So, you get in your car, push the ignition button. That baby comes to life. Then you push number 6. Oh yea, the CD that contains 173 Classic Rock songs. Then you just let the display tell the story.
