Both cars are considered "Stock" in the eyes of the SCCA. That being said, the Z06 has adjustable shocks and front swaybar (both Pfadt), racing brake pads (Carbotech), an aggressive alignment and Hoosier A6's. I think he used to have adjustable shocks on the Scud, but he said it was just too much of a pain in the butt to adjust them at the track.

He and I are almost always "silly close" in our times, but he's normally on Hoosier A6's as well. Sunday, he was on 180 tread wear Bridgestones.

Rad is a crazy nice guy. Last month, he drove the Ferrari over from Miami to Fort Myers ON RACE RUBBER.

He chose to trailer it this month. Everyone should have a Porsche Cayenne Turbo as a tow vehicle.

Z06 ran 68.759 (FTD)
Ferrari ran 72.042 (dirty)

The Ferrari driver took 2 laps in my Z06 and was able to turn a 70.267, but he hit 4 cones.

BTW, I'm still running Carbotechs, and they ROCK! I'm having your logos reprinted 10% smaller so I can fix the alignment on both rear quarter panels. They were too big to follow the body lines and look a little cockeyed.
