Default My 92 just got a little sister

99 FRC with 67,000 miles. I drove both yesterday. The 92 has a better fighter jet cockpit feel and handles better, but the 99 is a blast to drive.

Is that next weekend?? I'll have to try and make it out. Might be heading up to Crystal River for the weekend to visit some old friends but nothing is set in stone.

You have got to get that rear wing thing off the back of that poor FRC. Nice looking car outside of that.

C5 prices have stayed quite strong, much more so than C4 prices. They're great cars, but it's kind of a shame because I'd have to spend 4x as much for a C5 as I did my C4, and it sure wouldn't be 4x the track car.

I like the little wings on both. What kind is the one on the green C4?

Check Craigslist. I should probably put context in place though - the cars I was looking at were not the garage queen cars that had more wax on them than paint. They were cosmetically challenged cars that would make great track cars.

It looks like the lowest of C5 prices are hovering right around $10k now, so my numbers were a bit fuzzy. Hard to get a stick at that price though.

Saw you on Eastlake today in the FRC! It looks great. We must not live too far apart. I'm in the boot ranch area.

Nice new addition! Hope to make it to Dimmitt tomorrow morning for an hour or so with my two boys (turn 4 and 2 next month). Should be dropping my C5 ZO6 heads on my suburban, but gotta get the boys out of the house first.
