My 300001 mile picture is slightly deceiving. My Corvette is actually a '99 FRC. I bought a used Z06 cluster/HUD off this forum just for the HUD but I liked the Z06 cluster so I swapped odometers. This is the actual miles on my car.

My car puts down 471 rwhp with AFR 205 heads, Comp cam, FAST intake, headers, etc. I've swapped clutches twice, broke the transmission at a track day, broke the rear differential at the dragstrip, wore down the lobe on a cam, and hit a dog. But through all that the shortblock has held up along with the original water pump, power steering pump, alternator, starter, fuel pump... Next goal is 400k by July 2017.

By far my favorite pic of my car taken by my assistant in Ocean City for the Endless Summer cruise... this is his first year as a photographer, to nail a shot like this was epic.

I noticed your running Verdestein (?), How do you like them, and what size are the tires. I just put the same on my front, will soon be putting a set on the back, car seems to like these tires compared to the Toyo's I had. Just wonderin'.

Merry Christmas,
Terry
