Anybody have any info on the C6 Danny was driving ? I know the devil is in the details but I'm interested in the general specs on that car.

Ah the old street vs race debate - that's one I have with myself every day as one disappointing thing about my personal toy is the high level of NVH. Tolerable, but certainly not anywhere near modern OEM (its a built from scratch tube frame deal, so I probably shouldn't be so finicky).

But I still definitely like the idea of lights, wipers, HV, windows (preferably glass), and some semblance of carpet and upholstery. Of course its interesting to let the bare bones style cars (ie roadsters) show up too, but not fair in terms of competition.

Of course it would be great to have a pro drive the top cars back to back and contrast and compare, but that's not gonna happen except on an ad-hoc voluntary basis.

From a marketing perspective, what I would really like to see the most is a breakdown on all of the entries with build sheets and links to build threads or web pages if they exist. A great opportunity for everyone to tout their wares, and satisfy us internet junkies. Right now all I have is some photos of cool cars and a scoring sheet with no idea what was involved with most of these rigs.

I"m the guy at all the car shows rolling around on the ground trying to look under the cars, as sheet metal bores me after about 2 seconds.
