Payton the frame clearance is no different than the stock ride version you drove in our test car. You'll recall we didn't have any clearnce issues in and out of driveways and ramps.I believe I remember the clearance to be in the five and a half inch range. We'll go back and check though. The way our drop version of the frame works is that it drops the body over the frame and drivetrain which is why it was necessary to modify Payton's firewall and trans tunnel. The exhaust will be the lowest part of the car but Payton's going with a 3 inch to breath that strong LS motor he'll be running. Still I don't believe there will much of a problem if any.I'm out of town so the photos are the first time I've seen it on the ground. I'm almost as excited as Payton is. Can't wait to see it in paint Payton. Ed
I know some of you may not have caught Payton's posting earlier when he gave his driving impression for our test car. He mentioned then that I had hooked up a a G-tech that day and ran a couple skid pad runs on only about a 75 foot radius. This is the only data I have on our test car at present. We had not tuned the suspensionc yet and I was able to sustain .92 to .94 g's .This is with stock C5 Corvette wheels shod with nothing particularly special tire wise. We will tune it and we will wire the car for real hard data. I will of course pass this along when available.Payton's car will also get a shakedown as well as Conrade's big block so several diferent rentions will be available in the next couple of months. Ed
