Where have you been Pappy? Long time no talk to...

Car looks like it's getting there. Weighed it lately?

Hey Lance,

I've been pretty busy with work and spending a little time on track with the Viper (Inde). Back on the Corvette hard right now - need to get that thing finished. I haven't weighed it in a while - I will do that after I get the new exhaust system installed. 2.25 inch tubes and a 3.5 inch exhaust system will undoubtedly add some weight, but I did remove almost 200# with the latest firewall/frame mods. I'm still hoping to stay under 2800#.

Ryan Linder (X-1 Race Cars) just finished my headers - awesome work. 2.25" SS tubes, SPD merge collectors.

Hope these will stop it! Finspeed is building me a new set of wheels (18X12, 18X13). Had to go to a Corvette DP forging to get the rear backspacing I needed for the DSE Decalink.

That's a good looking wheel, Pappy. What finish will you put on them?
