I've been in a rally club for a while now, and I find my suspension with the Bilsteins adequate to run with most cars. I did change gears to a 3.54 which helped a lot. I think my weakest link is the brakes. Of course, extra HP never hurts.

Randy,
This is an open note to you:
We have a lot of folks on this forum who share information. We try to do this using complete sentences, puncutation, reasonable spelling and capitalization.
If you ask a question, ask it. Don't ramble around.
As it stands, no one is helping you, because you are not making any real sense. It's gibberish.
I know you don't want to hear this from a bunch of strangers, but if you really want to learn about Corvettes, and learn how to better deal with it, you will want to learn to grow up and act like a civil adult.
There are other members of this forum who keep asking inane questions in the most childish of manners, and they get little or no information.
As it stands, you don't know enough about the Corvette to even ask questions... step back, this is not a slightly modified F-Body. Other than some trim bits and electrical components, the C4 is a totally different machine. Sure, the engines and the automatic transmission are similar, but that's it.
If you are not careful, you will effectively alienate this site, and you won't get the info you want. This is NOT an Fbody site where 80% of the members are under 21, this is a site where 80% of the members are over 35.
Keep that in mind, and you will do fine. We love to welcome young, enthusastic members, don't think we are picking on you, it's all to help. Lessons here will help you in your future life, too.
Clear, concise communications are the cornerstone of success. You can start that success right here.

A little misspellings here and there, but I give you an A for effort in the attempt to copy William Faulkner's writing style!

His 1942 story "The Bear" contains a single sentence that is 1800 words long.
Hopefully, we can not even post something that long.
