Good stuff Bret! Nice reward after numerous days thrashing. I'm sure Smitty's loving life like you're loving the Z06.

Ok thanks for more video harassment Bret.

Just a couple things to point out

We did not short cut the car anywhere. Me or Bret would not allow it. I have to drive this thing and drive it fast. It is fast. I ran the car flat out on the first lap that's how confident I was in it. I was so confident in it I ran it on the road course with no hesitation at speed.

This build was incredible.

Ridetech shops capabilities are endless!!! I would ask them for a part and poof there's parts.


The car is bad azz.
