Don't you know that vettes are not for racing Just kidding.......something isn't kosher for it all to have let go like that unless you are running big HP #'s on a stock bottom end. I'm running a few ponies on a stock LS1 bottom. You have me afraid to take her to the track

ya know, your 2nd and 3rd pic are kinda neat.

as a photographer, those two pics could be art, framed up, side by side on a wall,,, maybe in a bar or atleast in the garage,,,,kinda cool.

or maybe i've had two many beers.....
