Well after beating on the car at Road Atlanta it seems like the clutch issues are fixed.. for now at least.

And the car has too much aero.. or too much drag from aero anyways. Going to mess with that at Sebring in 2 weeks.

Can't go any lower on the splitter itself and keep 0 degrees without adding extensions for the support bars. Can make it 2" shorter (ie sticks out 5" currently, can be set for 4" or 3").

I'm moving on to building other cars until 2nd gens are cheap..

bought this recently for a SpecCorvette build.. for less than 2nd gens cost that are far more damaged...



It's a clean title 02.. but it's mostly stock so I will probably move the speccorvette illegal parts from my 01 Z06 (which has the 02-04 engine part upgrades already) to the blue one and just make the 01 the race car to stick with my red track car theme.. and because the red car has solid mounts, ls7 clutch, RAM flywheel, oil cooler, radiator, etc already...

So.. this needs Team Lazy stickers I guess lol
