I sure hope that it does not have AFM... I am going to say $146K base, twin turbo cross-plane crank 875 hp RWD. I think that it will be a mass market model and not a limited run.

Take your shirt off! Why TT vs supercharged?
@RecordsRebuilds3 күн бұрын
Hahaha, honestly, it’s the CAD drawings from years ago that tell me it’s TT. I think they’ve never done a TT before and wanted to try. The C7 superchargers also heat soaked very badly and I think they may be trying to do better with the turbos.

Normally the thing to do is to unscrew the 2 latches which hold the cover closed and let them hang at the bottom, this way it avoids having to always pull the handle inside. After all the adjustments have been made, we just have to reinstall the latches where they were going. Ps: Don't Forget to go around the latch with a pencil to put it back in the same place.
@RecordsRebuildsАй бұрын
I have done that before, but if memory serves, on this car the height of the latches determines hood alignment so I had to keep adjusting the latches a bit at a time. If I mis-understood you, please make another attempt at explaining it to me because I’m an amateur and always looking to learn new tricks.

The thing that worries me about C/F wheels is the tyre shop. Does the guy changing your tyres care enough about your wheels to not damage them. Does the shop have the correct centre stabiliser that registers on the wheel lug nut holes, and not the centre hole? Most small tyre shops will not have the new machine that doesn't touch the wheel.

thank you. One thing that hurts, no matter how bad the car was hurt, why not put a mat or sheet on the floor to protect the seats from abrasion, as well as something to protect the sills when pulling them out of the car? That made me cringe...but, you have somew of the best c7 repair content, and i really appreciate your effort and sharing...baring it all.

210hp difference? You got to be kidding. I can see 100 making that difference, but 210 ..they should have been lapping you. Great job..time to start modifying her and making her really proud. Then you can say the zo6 has nothing on you. PERIOD> no EXCUSES ... gitterdone! Supercharge it...Bump up the crank HP to 650 WHEEL horsepower , stay out of the wall, and have fun!!! of course, im not paying for it, so might as well bump it up to 850 :)

Lol, I’ve spent so much time taking basket cases and getting them back in OEM shape that I don’t enjoy modifying cars much. Maybe I’ll get into it some day. With this Stingray though, it’s got 55,000 miles and something like 36 hours of track time and it’s never had a malfunction. It’s just so dang reliable. I have really enjoyed its dependability and that would probably go away with mods. I’ll get there some day I’m sure, just not yet.

@RecordsRebuilds3 ай бұрын
Good eye! You were correct, the next session I was able to get the lap time down to 2:36 (4 seconds faster) and I think I could have taken another 2 seconds off by being more aggressive coming in to 1 and 12. I was still working my way down to later braking markers and I don’t think I pushed it as hard as I could have.
