Regardless if it is months apart, it is always whenever there is LED tails posted up.

seriously Forced Firebird, i wanna come watch.

Race is 9am-11pm. Think it's $10 to get in and it's a pretty relaxed atmosphere, so you will be free to walk around the cold pit garages and such. Would love to see you guys there, come on out! We are in garage and hot pit number 21.

Here's the event supplement:

that would be pretty awesome to see! I always wanted to drive at Sebring so bad. Just never had the chance.

stewartfn18 · 09-26-2013, 06:43 PM

john, me and mac are coming down sat, not sure when but well be there

stewartfn18 · 09-26-2013, 06:46 PM

new wheels!!!! not sure what im gonna do with em just yet.
18x8.5 front
19x10 back
figure a nice 255 40 18 in the front and 285 35 19 in the back should be good enough. then c6 zo6 front brakes, at least

Those are nice wheels. I really want a set of ZR1 wheels for mine but they won't fit a base model C6. So maybe some Grand Sports wheels will do for me.

stewartfn18 · 09-26-2013, 10:39 PM

the guy i got these from put replica black zr1 wheels on his base c6. you can find replicas in the factory base size, that way you at least get the look. btw i got these for free for putting his new wheels on for free

Awesome free **** for a little labor FTW!!! That's how I got my free iPhone 4S that I traded a few months later for a free iPhone 5! Lol

AaronGTR · 09-28-2013, 08:42 AM

I'm not really crazy about those vette wheels. I actually can't recall ever having seen that style before. I like the C6 Grand Sport style wheels better, or even the base C5 or C6 wheels. Just my opinion.

I'm still undecided wether I'm going to keep the car or get a new car at this point. I'll decide soon.

C6Z06 brakes ain't all that. Light and tight is what you want (funny, it holds true for women as well).

You really owe it to yourself to look at the Essex/AP Racing competition brake system.

Essex Sprint system

. matt, that is quote worthy!

me and stewartfn18 went to sebring's chump car race today. here's a vid of Forced Firebird's car (i don't know if he was driving then)

my phone is 1080p. when i play it on my laptop it's a nice quality vid. but on yootoob the quality seems... meh

you guys wouldn't believe how open everything is. i could have streaked across the track at any time, nearly any corner. parking lot was 5% full. grand stand was all ours! best time ever!! i felt like i owned the track. drove all around the infield to scout good locations for the 12 hour in march. BUT these Chump Cars aren't a joke at all. really good racing!
if it were a little more affordable, we'd all give up on making our daily drivers faster, and just join a team to drive Chump Cars. (well, at least i would)

Sorry we never got to meet up

. We were hit right before the phone call and we were trying to get the car back out.

The impact dislodged the iac from rubber hose. Got it fixed and jumped in the seat.

MAC the KNIFE · 09-29-2013, 07:27 PM

when you had it in the cold pit, we were standing right behind y'all. just trying to stand out of the way. when it was ready to go back out, there was a tow truck blocking the garage lane.

took this pic while you guys were working on it.

what are some other florida races you guys go to?

ForcedFirebird · 09-29-2013, 08:13 PM

Yeah, tough to hold the cool. He could have pulled forward, the track workers pulled in the wrong way. ftl

ForcedFirebird · 09-29-2013, 08:14 PM

We will be at Sebring again next weekend in the e30, and again the 12th at Homestead.

[ChaosweaveR] · 09-29-2013, 08:21 PM

The box tape over the tails...I imagine that's to keep the lenses together if you're hit?
