So here is the sales pitch. We would like to get rolling on #2. The price will be $150,000.00 No car needed for the build as we buy all brand new GM parts.
Payment of $75,000.00 required to get started on the project, 50,000.00 after the chassis comes back from powder coat. Final balance is due before the car leaves for the track. DRM will be assisting during the first time out with the car.

Did you guys develop any parts for this car which will be available for general sale?

I appologize if this is thread hijacking,
Anyone know if these (specifically the front) fit on a C5 chassis? The pre-'08 steering rack has such terrible feel to it, I'd really love to be able to mount the newer rack on my car (and the weight savings is nice too).

I don't suppose you have a way to correct the above problem? If so, count me interested in a rebuilt steering rack that actually provides some feedback. I've got a solid mount (I made my own before you guys started offering one), but I think the problem is the rack itself.

Very very However, just a bit out of my price range!

Good luck building these they look like a work of art!

Well if I win the megamillions tomorrow I'll be giving you guys a call.
Where is that drool smile???

One badass machine!

I have watched the build posts, and that is one fine machine !! With those engine specs, it should live for many a track day. Be still my 401 K balance, you need to stay put !! If I was able, I would be second in line - make mine gold with black frame -----

Ohhhhh..... to be rich would be nice.

I know the rear crandle is completely different. I'm about 95 percent sure the front one would be a pain in the butt to make work. I'm not 100 percent sure.

The racks are normally pretty good, we do a couple things to make they live longer and not have as many issues. We also have the ablity to change up the effort in the steering wheel.

The funny part is I started to play the lottery a bit. I never used to

That street version c6zo6 on the video seems very well planted in the corners. What type of suspension is in that car?

0Randy@DRM

That car was drivin by AtomicZ (Eric) on the forum. It has our coilovers with monoball suspension. He is running big (tick under T1 size) sway bars. It makes about a extra 50 rwhp then the white car. Basically the same style suspension as the racecar.

It's been a long time since we had our coilovers on a skid pad. The last offical one was 1.1Gs with a 295-275 G-force street tire.

Lemans mid 90s


World challenge



More world challenge


One more C4

This one (or one similar) is on ebay these days...been watching it. I'm pretty sure it mentions being a DRM car.
