Damn Mike - very sorry to see that you are considering selling that beast. I can attest personally that the car is well built and VERY fast, having run with him at both VIR and Summit Point. There is no way you could duplicate that car for twice his asking price, just start adding up all the parts costs ! This car is going to make someone very happy. Anyone looking to take a step up and start in the Time Trial racing, this would be an excellent car for you.

Hey Curtis, you're right - it would cost close to $80,000+ to duplicate the build of this Corvette C5 and have it perform as well; serviced by the best tuner and shops around. I spared no expenses on the quality of the performance and safety modifications. The buyer will be getting a very special vette that could be driven on the streets and road courses. It's a beast!

Gray Ghost GS

Just got back from a weekend at VIR with TrackDaze after being away from the road courses for two years in the vette. Knocking off the rust while chasing a Nissan GT-R. The C5 was 100% perfect and awesome! I'm planning to go back in November for the VIR full and grand courses... unless it sells. I posted a video in the original thread.
