Do you mean the PPIHC 2016? I didn't see any entries driving a corvette.

No, not the hill climb, this is the Optima Street Car shootout. They had an event at Pikes Peak this past weekend.

Thanks for the clarification. The International Hill Climb wrapped up last week so the timing was close!

For anyone interested, I found some standings in the series. It looks like Rich is competing in the GTL class (not sure what rules apply) and took GTL overall this weekend at the Pikes Peak International Raceway.

Here is a link to the current standings. Scroll about half way down to GTL class and see Rich sitting at No. 1!

Here's a great pick of Rich's car at speed.

Thanks for the plug on here and the continued support from LG Motorsports. The go fast parts we've put on the car are really working well and the finishing order represents just how well it's all coming together.

I am currently leading the GTL class and the overall points standings.

I'm pretty excited to see the 3 way battle between Danny Rich and Mike this year! Rich just keeps making the target on his back bigger

I think we have a good chance at getting on the podium this year and I'm certainly gonna give it hell.

That's what I like to hear! Hopefully you'll get some TV time this year too.

Yes sir. This Friday night (9-2-16) on MavTV (channel 214 on DirecTV) or you can watch online at www.lucasoilracing.tv once the episode airs on MAV.

I've been told that we got some pretty good air time on this episode so check it out and watch our LG Motorsports equipped Z06 win the event. The good one to watch will be a couple weeks later when the Pike's Peak episode airs. That event was a clean sweep, winning first place overall in all 3 driving events.

If no one minds sharing the secret sauce but what are the spring rates used here?

There is no such thing as an "Easy Race". All racing is man + Machine against a race track and the other competitors.
I congratulate Rich and the effort that I KNOW must go into making any car ready for competition.

We at LG Motortsports thank you for your support and honor you for your success.

Keep up the good work.

Thanks
Lou Gigliotti
LG Motorsports.

Anthony,
any chance the GT2 shocks will be available as stand-alone ?
(i.e. NOT in a Coil-Over configuration... just shocks alone)
I'm looking for some good Adjustable shocks.

Possibly. The GT2 version for the C7 should be ready for release and shipping to customers this month.
