Thanks bro. I stole his rear fikse's cause my FIKSEs have michelins that don't grip. We have that car all apart now, we have a twin turbo kit identical to mine so eventually, we have big plans for that thing. Gotta finish the solid roller WS6 first, and the LT4 C4 first befire we can jump back to that car. It will probably be about a year away from anything in this current economy.

The street racing world needs that car back on the road,.....can't wait.

Lovin' on the look.

Carbon doesn't work for everything, but it fits the car in this case.

Just getting the sound out the rear will help it sound queter in the cabin.

Thanks! Carbon fiber goes with EVERYTHING haha!!!

I have it in a few areas on the car visible and hidden. The car is WAY quieter on the inside, which I love. Seems louder on the outside, especially from the back for obvious reasons. Overall, super stoked to have it out the back now. Dream come true for me.

I hear ya. I see the shorty dumps being used a lot now. It's been old for me for a couple decades now, but I understand the young-buck excitement about it. Some of us grow out of it.

Ever run it over @ Sebring Intl?

Yep, no thanks on the dumps. Been there, done that.

This car is built to go around corners....then I put turbos on it. So it's a little extreme for sebring right now....although I might do it up in this car once or twice. We have a couple of shop vettes, and vipers that we take to the road course around the states. Sebring is a favorite.
