Drag radials, skinnies, drive to track with ac on, tunes pumping and sitting in leather, drop air pressure in drag radials, run 9's and drive it home, course if it was my car it would be drive to track, drop tire pressure, do burnout, stage, launch, scatter rear end all over track, void warr, call tow truck, track owner is pissed cause track is now wet...wife hates me cause i spenp 69 995.00 on now really broken car.....yep....---- it, i will just keep driving my smelly civic....
the lingenfelter tt vets run 8's 800 hp with a 2 year warentee for alittle over 100 grand.
The new one runs mid 8s i guess and has 1000 wheel horse, im sure there is a vid .

It was sad to see that Lingenfelter died in a Cavalier and not one of the Vettes he was famous for.The guy built some incredible rides.

qouted for ignorant statement of the day.

i doubt you could put any amount of money into an FC to make it handle as well as a stock c6 z06.

you cant change the type of car the FC is. what do you think adding the best shocks and springs and sway bars and tower bars and bushings and every suspension componant ext is going to magically make a car a F1 car out of a FC

i bet you could make a FC handle as well as as stock c6 z06, take a z06 and put a FC body on it
