Well we had a great time at Watkins Glen this weekend even in the rain. Fun Fun Fun Track. Chris ECS, Bob Z06 Forum, Jim 47, and myself were zipping around the track - well they were zipping I was holding on for dear life....

Wow! Thanks for the pics and write up, Bob!

I borrowed one from ECS. I would like to get my own eventually. Right now I need to finish the car and my tow truck then go from there.

BTW - I have a Full Size V8 Explorer which had no problem towing the car. I need to add electronic brakes and some suspension things.

Main reason expensive. $500 to race the weekend plus hotel, food, gas and other things not including racing tires, rotors, brakes and all sorts of racing stuff. Good thing you can race the C5 as is....

1/4 mile is $30 and you go home the same day.....
