Can anyone recommend any publications out there for setting up a C5/C6 for track days? I know there is tons of info on the different threads. Also have several generic books (Steve Smith, etc.) that I've gone through was just seeing if there are any corvette specific publications.

Thanks

Call Lou's shop down in Texas.



Anthony should be able to get you set up.

My advice is to keep everything stock until you're run about 6 events. Just do maintenance stuff.

You should write a guide/how to for setting up suspension on c5/6/7's with tips and tricks. I'd buy 2 copies right now.

I would second the vote on calling Anthony at LG. I've got a 2013 GS that I bought new and am slowing converting to a track car. I've installed a lot of mods that are LG - tunnel plate, sway bars, GT2 coil overs, stainless steel brake lines and carbon fiber hood, side skirts, ZR 1 flat bottom splitter, G2 spindle ducts and lastly their famous long tube headers. Ive found their products to be of high quality and they stand behind what they sell. I took my car from Nebraska to their shop north of Dallas to have them do the install and tune. That's about a 10 hour drive each way!

Nothing but great experiences with LG and Anthony! Anthony is very knowledgeable and equally honest which is very difficult to find - trust me I've learned the hard way.

BTW the GS has performed extremely well since the mods. My winter project is seats, harness bar etc.

Yep, I'll also say connect with Anthony in Texas. I plan on giving them an order for G2 coil overs and sways during this off season. He always responds to questions and concerns

I still have parts on the self right now to make more after I finish this last round of orders. Just let me know if you have any questions.
