Nope, just a fun Vette day. There were a few other cars in the pit area but I think they were cars for sale or just for show. That Firehawk was bad!! I would have loved to see it run.

It's ultra fast... he's a memer of RPM a Richmond club. The car laid down over 800 rwhp earlier that day at PAS' dyno. It's a blown 402 w/ a carb'd manifold.

He's still rowin' the 6-speed.

Thanks for the pic Roger. It was odd that 2 new Z's and one C6 broke half-shafts. Jeff seems to think they are worse than the version on the C5's

^ They are... do a little reading on the C6Z forum. Many of the C6Z drag racers are upgrading to C5Z shafts.
