Got myself a C5 Vert (again) :D

It's a '98 Vert in close to flawless condition...

The only thing that I'm going to change are the wheels.. Still have to decide if I'll go with polished Z06 or 2k rims...

Here are the pics!
(the light conditions were bad to get some good shots.. Will take better pics another day)

I actually took the car already to the track today... Raced at the Florida Corvette Challenge...

It was hot (86 degrees) and very humid..

My best ET was 13.68 @ 105.5 mph with a 2.350 60' time...
I need some traction and 12's should be possible on a cool day/night..

Sweeeet!

I have a '99 Black FRC , I'm shopping for wheels also and as far as wheels go I like the Z06 , but Possibly the C6 style polished or machined face with black insets . Congrats & Good luck

Congrats on the new ride. It looks great for a '98. Almost new but for the drivers seat. But that looks like some TLC would fix that up.

Hell yeah! Nice vert. Go with Z06 chromies and don't forget the new Lloyd's floor mats and a vert partition.
