Will, you should be able to fix the hugger SS with a better budget now. Remember that your previous mods were done on a broke college kid budget. Time for some Brembos, LS7 with dry sump, 6-point rollbar to add stiffness, Motons, carbon fiber body panels, lexan windows, Forgeline wheels, etc...

Maybe you misunderstand my budget about like my realtor does. I can fix it MUCH nicer than before but LS7 isn't in the realm of possibility. Brakes I'm actually happy with (if I can keep the rotors from cracking...no they're not drilled). It will get fixed but not sure the approach yet

Proof it can already go around track and I'd use the term "cheap" lightly...

Looks like a lot of fun, was kind of wondering what was going on when I saw all the cars going to TWS. Sure glad they have new owners and doing something with the track, heard during the off season they repaved a couple corners, cant wait to get back out there on a bike. That is a freakin awesome track on a bike, can only imagine what it is like in a car.

Looks like a lot of fun! The Z06 looks like it has a very nice collection of brake dust on the front wheels.

Nah James we were there Saturday only. Went to hang with Tony/Lisa and Ken and get some pics. We stayed home on Sunday and did our own thing.

Brook you have the perfect car for TWS. It should basically be able to drive itself around the course from memory alone by now!
