Brian --

Recording your times at RTTC 2 -- and watching almost every run come down... and watching you snick that sick 'Vette through the course made my whole week. I talked to anyone that would listen about your runs the whole next week!


Will you 'retire' the 'Vette when the Camaro is done?

Thank you so much for the kind words. I had a lot of fun at RTTC 2. My Dad and I have had a lot of fun with the Corvette the past 25 + years. I would not call it "retired" but maybe give it a rest for a while. We will still run some local Corvette events and an occasional American Autocross or SCCA event. My Dad my take it out on a weekend I can not make it out with the Camaro. I plan on going through the Corvette from top to bottom in the next couple years. It has been a work horse for a long time and needs a little love.

The color is simply amazing! Like everyone else I cannot wait to see the finished product.

That thing is freakin' badazz!

I met Mike Maier at Del Mar yesterday, great guy with tons of energy. I think that anything prepped by him is going to be stupidly fast. Mike had the field by .800 in his car yesterday, something like this camaro would out-class everyone out there by a long shot.

A street driven CP car just seems like insane amounts of fun.

I want to make love with your camaro. Let me know if its interested

Very........may have to move the car to Kentucky to be legal.....

The front end has been installed and the final prep is being done before paint. We are going to repaint the hood as we had a couple small areas to fix for the best fit. On Monday, the car goes back to the paint shop to get the final work done.

So hot! Love the hood latches. I'm seriously considering those for my car as well.

coolwelder62 04-24-2011 07:52 AM

Brian,It's lookin real nice.I might have to paint my 72 orange.:lol:

Jtomas801 04-24-2011 03:07 PM

That front end looks great, I can't wait to see it painted.

Hey Brian, quick question, what size bolts and rod ends did you guys use for the 3 link? And I am assuming regular Grade 8 bolts?

Thanks,
Jon

tones2SS 04-25-2011 05:15 PM

Man, that looks killer. I love the hood latches and the front end.
