I bought the car at 50k mi and have done everything listed above. I have an Excel file of all mods with a corresponding date and mileage. Any questions let me know!

Congrats on the sale, did you tell the new owner about this site? I was wondering what was taking so long with all the "low mileage 100k+" cars going for like $15k. But like you said, purple and LT... BTW, how much faster are you in the C5 on your usual tracks? The new owner is the the stepdaughter of SS2win (member on this site). So he knows what has gone into the car. I've only raced the C5 once last year (after a month of owning it) with street tires and unknown brake pads. That was a mess LOL. Over the winter it got a tune, MGW shifter, Koni Shocks, HPS pads, 315 square rival S and an alignment+lowered. I have only done one test and tune (20+ runs with the new bits) but it's NO Camaro. Handles A LOT different and I was surprised as how collected it feels. With the Camaro the best I could ever do is the bottom of the top 1/3 raw times. My only goal is to move up instandings from there. Low aspirations, I know but it's something. I have to compete with Danny Popp/Nathan Popp, Marshall Reinart, Bryan Shaefer, Kent Weaver, Paul Curley. Most compete at Nationals and or OPTIMA events. quite the competition for CAMS locally for me. Congrats! I know the feeling about selling the car. Bittersweet, but when they go to a good home, it's so much the better. We finally found the person that fit our car, too. Agreed! This post has been edited by Smitty2919: Apr 16 2019, 04:43 PM |
