That car looks great. Question: What is the deal with that mini brake in the back? So you can put the 16's on it?

, no its the stock rear caliper on a baer eradispeed +2 rotor. I wanted the C6 Z06 rear caliper, but I have a 3.5 in lip on my 20 inch rear wheels. I plan on painting the whole caliper this Winter to make it look a little bigger.

Thanks

Guess the 20's would make them look tiny. Car looks good though.

Traction is ok, but if you really want it to hook up from a dead, dont get the 20's

I love the 19/20 way too much to give it up, so my traction suffers.

From a roll however it does real good, but I have broke the tires loose over 110+ mph in a shift
