TRJ, I don't know how you are managing to sleep right now knowing you are likely going to be getting your baby delivered to you sometime next week. :spook
Having said that, I just noticed the goodyear slick on the back of the silver C6??? What's with that?
Thanks for sharing ;42 you are sharing what for many of us is a dream through this thread.

Hi V.O.
I try to keep myself busy (detailing the driveway, pruning my neighbors shrubbery with a pickaxe, tried to Zaino the roof) anything to keep me busy and to wear myself out, I still walk around like a Zombie...;eek
As you may suspect, I have a close, fun, relationship with my Aussie friends, (I suspect that some of my ancestors were from OZ) I'm most happy to share my project with you and the gang, that's what friends do...;42
The Silver C6 that you asked about I believe is owned by a friend, and member of DC and CF named Bill Burton. He has his car at LPE now, getting the 403 CID package. I believe he will also be getting his car next week. He also had the full "wide body" Z06 body kit installed on his C6. Maybe they install a set of slicks on your car to test out the "launch" of the new package. I'll try to find out, now I'm curious also...;eek
Lpe will use the balance of this week, buttoning-up my car. They will put about 50 miles on it, out on the road, with (2) engineers and a laptop, fine tuning all the perameters, then back to the Dyno for more of the same, and the final Dyno run, recording the final numbers for mine, and their records.
Then a final, complete detailing, and shipping my baby back home to me in an enclosed carrier. I'm roughly about 200 miles Northwest of them. I'll keep up with all the pics, I've been promised another bunch in the next few days...:spook
I wanted to mention that I had a lot of fun talking to RubyZR1 (Wayne) and ozzievette (Ozzie) last night on Digital Corvettes, we were on a thread called RHD Z06's in of course, the Z06 section. We must have gone back and forth posting for at least a half an hour. What a couple of great guy's! Here's the thread, if you care to read it, I believe we get together on page 2...;49
