Default Short vid of 7t2vette cruising!

Here is a quick vid my buddy took of me driving my car this past summer. He is driving a very hot 2011 Carbon Edition Z06. A few of us were coming back from a local cruise night, you can see some of the other guys in his side view mirror.

I love this vid of my car, 7t2vette looks HOT!!!

Watch in 720p HD and full screen for the full effect here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MIc8LlCBEQ8

Looks fantastic, that would be a nice screen safer video for the pc. We never really know how good our own ride looks until someone else shows it on video, Or you let someone else drive it so you can see the car in action.
That happened to me a few weeks ago when I followed my wife back from picking up my lowered 92 GMC, I never really knew how sweet the truck looked while rolling.

That's funny. I just saw that today on YouTube and you decide to post it. Can you say coincidence or what man?

I like the burnout vid in the parking lot.

I forgot about that burnout vid! That is at Mosport in the lower paddock area, which is a giant open paved area - perfect for crazy burnouts! Same cameraman as the vid I posted inthe first post, but he didn't realize I was going to do donuts after the straight line burnout! By the time he turned his camera back on, I was just about done. He combined the 2 vids he took into 1, you can see the donut marks all over the pavement!

Great cruising video 7T2. I'm not usually a fan of larger wheels on Sharks but those American Racing (correct?) wheels look great, especially when she's rolling.

I plan to attach a couple GoPros to my Avalanche to get stills and video of our '79 on the highway. Maybe I should have asked the State Trooper that shadowed me for about 5 miles yesterday how she looks!

The wheels are 17" American Racing Torq Thrust II's. The suspension is all from Vette Brakes & Products; front composite spring conversion and tubular upper and lower control arms, rear composite spring with VB&P trailing arms, QA1 adjustable shocks all around. The ride height is quickly and easily adjusted through the spring bolts with the composite springs.

Thanks! I remember talking to you there, your car's plate is the same as your forum name, right?

Yup! Sure is...
That was a great weekend with fantastic weather....too bad the Ferrari passed the Vette at 5 on the last lap for 2nd place...which ended up being 1st because of a penalty to the Flying Lizzard Porsche in the ALMS race

Love the 72 in white! The first vid looked really great, with the parking lights on! One of the reasons I like the 70-72's with the bigger square turn signals and the egg-crate grill!

Very nice clean car. I would not do it any different.
One of the best looking 72's I have seen on the CF.
