I'll bet you my Miata faster :goofy:

I don't know, C6Z is a 10 second car on slicks, and will crack 190 out of the box, whats in your Miata 302?

Well it's not stock for sure running 15psi boost,dual fuel rails apex boost management tech ecu 270 RWHP @ 2100 lbs. of weight.

Size does matter but top end the vette would eat my lunch.

Sounds like your car is quite righteous at that power/weight ratio. Interesting bit of mods, there!

But the bottom end power on my Chevrolet ain't bad, either. It simply annihilates the tires at any RPM in first or second, and spins them plenty in a hard shift to third. But last November when it had about 1000 miles on it, BaileyRock was with me when we cleared 140 pretty quickly...and then hammered the brakes and let the ABS do its thing, launching ol' BR into the seatbelt with his arms dangling out in front of him! :tongue:

Here's the dang tire:

Vette's are the bomb for sure

Well, there are other bombs out there, but I think we agree that the Chevy's "bang for the buck" is hard to beat. :wub:

After years of building NHRA gasser and pro-stock style engines, I don't do NUTTIN' to my Vettes except change the dang oil. I know all about the heads and cams and headers and etc available that make more power, but why mess with a perfectly engineered, bulletproof powerplant? One that gets 26 mpg on the highway, no less! :bliss:

In fact, I have a little joke that most people don't get: When they ask about any mods I've done, I tell them "Nope, can't do that. I've welded the hood shut with a fiberglass welding rod.....". :goofy:

I will have to do a Microtel parking lot chain and sprockets job, but other than that, I am completely un-prepared. I did buy a new stuffed monkey though.

It would be great if you parking lot mechanics would announce your project so us novices could see how it's done (or not done). There may be a need to establish non-harassment of the demonstrator rule to prevent distractions.

How about it peeps. Willing to show us how?

As VFRd Event Rookie, I'm not sure if this is already in the works...

Have a map of US and Canada with tacks (displayed in a common area) where everyone puts a tack where they are from.

I like maps and think it would be interesting to see where everyone is from. I'll be arriving late Monday and would have time to help assuming Franklin has some kind of store that would have a map and tacks or pins.

Between this and my previous idea of documenting everyone's VFR year, I guess I'm somewhat volunteering for the official event statistician. No, I'm not bringing a laptop. :-)
