    2015 Z06 specs leaked 620hp/650tq

    I would agree that 10A is a hard stop - I have seen cars in the gravel after trying to stop for the turn - and it you overheat your brakes in 10A and don't get your pedal back, turn 1 can be real exciting on the next lap.

    2014 Tail of the Dragon!

    We had to change the dates because of the crowds. New dates are May 30 - June 1. We'll keep everyone informed but make plans to attend now. What could be better than twisty roads, good folks, and lots and lots of Vipers?

    VCA Drama: what are the known facts?

    Bob we all agree that it is or should be just a car club. The problem is that it has quit being a car club that puts members first. I drove 200 miles today in my car and you know what? VCA didn't cross my mind. Folks from our region got together at Barber Motorsports Museum, looked a lot of...

    VCA Drama: what are the known facts?

    What JonB has said is that the employee used him to find part numbers and other info and then ordered parts from other sources. If this is the case, I would have called someone's employer too because why should I waste my time looking up part numbers and tracking things down for someone who has...

    Barrett Jackson

    Almost anything new goes for less $$$. I have seen 100K cars sell in the teens. Late model expensive BMW, Porsches, Mercedes, etc. all go for a fraction of the cost new. Seller would have been better off selling to a Viper interest crowd than at Barrett Jackson. On the other hand, a lot of...

    Its worth saving, help john help you

    Bob I don't think there is any Koolaid from the presidents call of a few weeks ago and our past president did not do himself or the VCA board any favors by interrupting the call. I did not participate in either call last week as I just needed a break from the drama and had some other plans that...
