Looks mean, on another note, seems like most two car garages built after the 90s are really 1.85 car garages. Tight fit with those big doors on a Vette and F-body.

While I think the car looks awesome. What gives with the non matching wheels and lack of center caps on the front?

Ummm, the chrome Welds are skinnies.... (other pics)'
skinnies = weigh loss, great for straight line racing.

I'm pretty familiar with the uses of wheels/parts on cars etc. Could have just said they were skinnies And I would have known lol. Its the internet so I get the explanation. Ever actually seen what the difference the car ET'd with the different wheels on it at the track? I'd be curious just exactly how much that helped you if that's the only change.

To be honest I really wouldn't know... a friend loaned me the skinnies while Weld was building my new wheels...( match the rears).
My friend runs them in the 1/4 w his FI Grand Sport and swears by them. 60ft times are night and day. sorry I couldn't help...

My 71' gains 2 mph in the 1/4 with the front skinnies/radials over the stock front wheels/tires alone. I've tested this at the track A-B-A style twice.

My Z06 gained 12 mph going to a CCW drag pack and 26" rears vs. the stock C5Z speedlines and 28" drag radials.. It sounds crazy I know... But the 28"s just killed it after the 3-4 shift on the MN12 Trans. This test was 1 month apart at HRP and actually had worse DA with the CCW trip, nothing else changed on the car.

*I'd say the CCW drag pack is worth 3-4 mph with bias plies all around..

Your lighter Weld RTS are probably even worth more mph over stock C6Z wheels. Nothing surprises me, I've seen some crazy **** testing different things at the track in my time.



OP, your car is sick as hell! Very nasty!!
