While it's apart this winter would you PLEASE PUT A CAGE IN IT! I get it, you don't want one in there cuz its a street car blah blah blah. Don't be that guy man, we'd like to keep you around for a bit longer.

With the right chassis guy doing it you won't even know its in there. Do yourself a favor man, seriously.

Its a street car, no cage.

When we head to the Texas mile down the road Ill add the cage, fire suppression and chute

I was once with that train of thought, and almost against the notion of a cage.

Until I had a moment at 190+ when the car lost traction and went sideways.

I fitted a cage after that. It was just pure luck it didnt turn into a mess.

I may not agree with many so called safety rules, especially some of the daft ones in the US...but a cage can make a lot of sense. Especially given the level of performance of a car like yours.

The "its a street car, no cage" line is flawd thinking. With the right builder it can be tucked up so close to pillars and headliners you'll never know its there. Just get removable door bars. Hell, the vast majority of people that sit in my car don't even notice the parachute handler over thier head and I'm a C5 with is def smaller inside than your C6.

With the amount of cash you've poured into that C6 and the speeds you drive it its beyond me how your bilder hasn't all but made you do it. Regardless, your car....your life man.

Not meaning to gang up on you or butt my nose in and make it seem like it's an intervention or something, but I have to agree about the cage.

While I'm sure that you've put a TON of money into building your car, you're risking the thing that money CAN'T buy...your Life!

While there is no guarantee that a cage could save your life (I'll use John Lingenfelter as an example), I'd bet that the odds of it helping are better than not!

As stated above, it's your decision though.

By the way, I rewatched some of your Scare cam videos and I believe it's your Mom, but she cracks me up! I think you almost made her pass out. She looked like it took her breath away for a moment!

Thanks for sharing them!

How is the quad disk clutch around town? Also what slave did you go with that monster clutch? Killer car, love the new elbow setup. Looks like cutting the hood is in your near future.

SinisterC6

I work in a trauma center at these speeds a cage isn't doing very much.

Scare cam videos with pretty girls coming this spring/ summer

SinisterC6

Heck yea we're cutting the hood, plan on making every GTR is Destin Florida **** their oil pan when I roll up and the intake is sticking out like a big middle finger to their AWD and dual clutch tranny.

Its a tick adjustable slave. The clutch drives like stock with a 10-20% increase in effort. My McLeod chattered more.

Ultrasport05

Very nice mike! Question, are you making a trip to Destin soon or are you moving? I live there. I'd love to see sinistter now. I'd also love to see the looks on said GTR owners faces! Haven't seen the car since the open house at vengeance last spring.

SinisterC6

Im still in good ol' Knoxville. I have the weekend off which is why I can go. feel free to stop by and say Hi

Ultrasport05

This is the most impressive build i've seen in a corvette. It is actually the fastest half mile vette.. First to 200mph 1/2.

Congratulations to SinisterC6, Ron and Mike for the success they've had with this build.

Ultrasport05

looks like a great time Mike. Good luck. I'll see if I can make it down there

SinisterC6

Thanks a lot, it is only going to go faster from here. We have some surprises for January.

SinisterC6

Looking foward!

NICK YOSKIN

I hope not

Tuomas FIN

Any plans pull the full mile?

SinisterC6

You know it!

trayack

So I'm sorry to beat the dead horse but...

You run 200mph in the 1/2...with dick for safety equipement? What organization is gods name is retarded enough to let that happen? I assume you've seen the the orange UGR Galardo bite the big one running the mile a few years ago right. That dude owes his life to his chassis builder. PERIOD.
