Today I realized I need more power

One of my customers let me drive his 430 in3, 560hp (engine dyno proven) C4 Corvette 6 speed, 4.11:1 rear end.

WHAT A TRIP!!!

2nd gear entering the freeway with him at the wheel, punches the gas and the car fishtails back and forth up the ramp, rear 315 tires spinning so fast they didn't have time to think about smoking! All I could do was laugh out loud!!!

After lunch, it was my turn. Clutch action was pretty heavy and the shift throws were the shortest I'd ever felt in 20+ years of driving. Another 25mph roll in second gear, punched it and felt like I was riding a rocket sled. I LOVE torque!

Sorry, just had to bleed off some serious adrenaline.
