That's Dave's (digvex on CF) car. Very fast car that also happens to be a beautiful show car.

4th car down, though I think that car biography is out of date. Think ECS is in the midst of a website overhaul.

To each his own.
This car is ran on DOT tires though, and is also street driven. This car started most of it's usage sitting at car shows, then the owner found drag racing... now it does both, but more racing then sitting.

That is frigging awesome. A C5 in the 8's at 152mph. I was racing my Convertible the other day and got in the low 12's before they kicked me out. Said any convertible running faster than 13's had to have a full roll bar. Said my seat hoops didn't qualify Loved the video and an awesome C5. Like the guy said if you don't get it, you never will. At 55 years old, got my license in Idaho at 14 and been street racing and dray racing ever sense. Love it. I've never done road course racing, always to afraid to wreak my car but I'm sure that's a blast too.
Thanks

Because the NHRA requires it, not an option. It does come right off with a pin, and when the plate is back on you would never know it was ever there.

Sweeet video. What type of build is that? Either he is one hell of a lightening quick shifter, or it is an auto?
Specs?
