Default project dumbass (our C5 vette project)

well had some time this week after finishing Big Mikes car so here's a few shot's of the c5 [sorry no pic's of what we are doing with the irs]











the car will be built to use the stock cradle IRS set up which we'll be modifying in order to run 15 inch wheels/tires for stock suspension radial racing and it will also be set up with a 4 link, so we can put a rear in it to run limited street in orsca and top street in the ptra down here by us

That rear tire is no where near big enough. You need one at least twice that size.

nope, it will be a stock suspended C5, all 4 a arm,s bolted to the stock location [if it work,s all the better] and coil over,s are allowed in 99 % of the SS classes, so the car should be able to run either or by just unbolting the cradle, again the straight rear will probably be done first as ,the knuckles and shafts are like 8weeks out
