Thanks Drty, Pewter I mean, goes well with the Silver V.
Christa: Bad Wheel hop if I hammer it in both first or second, but you can get better 60 foot times if you slip the clutch versus dropping it. You trade clutch wear for tire wear and bent suspension components.
There are fixes for this if you want to change out a few rear suspension components. Google for the Cadillac V boards and you can get the gouge.
Me, I wanted this to squire about customers so I dont' want to "harden" the suspension anymore so I didnt modify it, but actually, now that we have the H2 we take customers about usually in it since it' more 'plush.'
Biggest modification I did for the V was a better rain tire than the stock supercar Goodyears. Wore those completely out within 6 months and then they sucked in Utah winter weather or any rain storm. Part of the reason we added the H2.
Dont' race anymore; crazy sport, might as well do crack. When I was racing the #94 RT/10 Viper with the Viper Club of America back around 1996, won a third place refrigerator magnet at Gateway in St. Louis that said, "Congratulations, Third Place." Figured it cost me $1000. Sold the Viper and bought two Mini Coopers to campaign in SCCA ProSolo and AX. My co-driver won a number of races on the West coast swing with my #14 H Stock MiniCooper, I really only did well against easier competition in Utah and Rocky Mt states. So I was better at setting cars up than driving them...again, $1000 for refrigerator magenets...
Sold all the race gear early this year and bought a boat, I'm a better sailor than racer anyway.
