I'm trying to decide if I want to lower it at all, it already scrapes a bit on my driveway.

As long as its only the rubber, that's designed to hit and flex.

How much can you drop on stock bolts?

I dropped mine about an inch I'd say, but there was room to go further, maybe 1.5-2 max.

C7's have about an inch of adjustment; .5 up or down from factory height.

Wow, that's more than I thought. I think I'll do about an inch tomorrow as well.

Thanks.

Car looked good.

I do remember it being pretty high to start with though, so who knows if it was at factory height to start with. Regardless, there is a lot of adjustment. You can always shave the pad a bit too for a little more drop.

Well, I chickened out and didn't lower it. Brought it to Jeff and had it aligned so it drives nice and straight. Bah, I'm old and it's low enough already. :D

Also got around to working on the stereo a bit. It's a non-Bose system with an aftermarket bluetooth deck. The factory 10" door woofers really blew so I replaced them with some nice 6.5" Alpine components. Got some bass back but still needs a sub. I'll get around to that shortly.

I second this. It's the only way to go imo.

I need something that fits with the top in the back and I don't mind doing fiberglass work so I'll end up building a custom box for it.

Ha, been enjoying the hell out of this thing, I take it every time I don't have to haul family around.

Got to Rock Falls last weekend and got some runs in. Definitely not what I expected running a best of 12.8@113mph, but unlike the old days, didn't have to do a thing to it but hot lap over and over. The temp was 92 degrees so I'm pretty sure it was pulling some timing, but a few mods to the air inlet shroud should add some missing HP. Sure was nice cruising back with the AC on. :D

More time running/having fun and then add AC, sound perfect to me.

Time to hit up some racing with turns now!

True, need to find a time up at BIR when it's not a bunch of kids drifting. I need to get in the local Vette scene, I've seen at least five just in my area, including a new ZO6 that got sideways right in front of me the other day.

^Try some auto-x and events at DCTC. I loved the DCTC stuff, local and usually at a great price.

Pretty much every event that isn't pg or powercruise then. The average age is about cut in half at those events.

There really is no Vette scene that I know of haha. Just the dealerships do some vette days, all filled with older people. :)

Re: Another C6
 
Yeah, I looked up a couple local Vette clubs and their pics are all of people WAY older than me. Hmm, no thanks. :D
