Is that the factory sizing of the tires on the C5 or are the race wheels wider? Didn't know they were that wide on a vette.

I think the issue is that most people do what they do for fun and not necessarily to be the best. There aren't many people on this board who do any competitive racing. Most people build the car they way they like it on the street and possibly go the the track with the goal of having fun and seeing how good they can do.

What he is saying is fitting the tire/rim combo inside the corvette, he is driving the car to the event but on street tires then changing out for the wider slick combo when he gets to the track.

From what I have heard these are the best tires he can put on the car and run in this class. This eliminates any driver error, and will point Ryan in the right direction.

Dizzle, stop eating out of that box of Wheaties with Ayrton Senna on the front :P

(Side note, that would be kinda cool)

Ryan, I kinda thought the return to stock would be for nationals, but the slicks comment threw me off. Stock+slicks must be one of those crazy autoX classes that I will never understand, but again, play on playah! I ain't hatin! Go get'em tiger. When the season is over will you re-mod it, or just sell off those parts for other stuff (pay for the tires)?

And you call me elitist. haha

Let the man build the car how he wants! Personally id make it handle better and roar down the streets, plus look sexier but each to his own!

If you ever wanna take me for a spin in it, lemme know.
