Yep. One scary ride down the track.
Just curious, in this class of car. Do they actually start with a C7 and build the chassis etc. under the stock body or is this a total fiberglass replica door slammer that had never seen the inside of the Bowling Green assembly plant? Hacking a new C7 up to make this car seems excessive for the initial investment involved, but as I have heard before:
"How do you make a small fortune in racing?"
"Start with a large fortune."
