2002 C5 Street/Strip Car

Updated

The Story

Being a "Honda Boi" for most of my life, venturing to an "unreliable" domestic V8 muscle car was a pretty big leap, and I love both camps now. It's a one-owner C5 base, original 6spd car, and short of a Hurst shifter knob, it was bone stock. Coming from a "background" of just making street hits & roll racing, diving into the world of road course racing and some trips to the drag strip showed me there's a lot of room to grow and a whole other universe I've been missing. Car is still a daily driver for me, and given I stack 18-25k miles a year on it, I would never sacrifice that to turn it into a full-blown race car. My goal is a "reliable" 700whp(on pump 91/93) street/strip Vette that can still carve corners and roll into cars and coffee. Wish me luck :D
