C7 Corvette Permanent (?) Jacking Pads for Track
There are several styles of jacking pucks available for the C7. It seems to me the preferred way to go
is to have something permanently installed under the car.
What are you guys using to jack up the car when going to the track?
What's involved in the installation? Welded or bolted? Some have a "lock in place" style, but not sure
they won't fly off in hard corners at the track.
Are these compatible with the aftermarket side rockers?
Thanks.

Forum venders sell them. Perfectly clip in place and stay on!
Had them for years on my C-6's. Only those were rectangles.
They can save your car. Not complete with out them!

I ordered mine from RPI. Snapped right in. It's been up on a 4-post lift a couple times, and I lift the whole side of my car with a floor jack from the front puck to swap out my wheels. All solid. Not sure who makes these for RPI, or if there are different manufacturers, but mine seem very solid.

Mine shattered...see pic below. I almost freaked out when the jack then slipped and almost came down. Luckily the jack caught the edge of the rocker panel and stopped it from tearing up the rocker panel and then the door. Also lucky I had a second jack to jack it up.
