Found some logos for my center caps. I like being unique I guess.

Thanks, I do as well. They are the old style of DPE R07, welded 2 piece instead of bolted. They are actually polished with clear on top but I dipped them in a matte silver to see what they looked like before I go all in and paint them.

I was waiting for someone to lose traction - I saw a guy in a ZR1 do that, spun the wheels at speed, the promptly met a wall.

Pretty sure no sparks from my brakes, but my front wheels are black now from all the brake dust. LOL

Dumped 3 gallons of 100 to mix with 93 and
Played some cat and mouse with a friend and her gt350 on an infinity course. Im due for a suspension refresh or at the very least sway bars and links.

Made a huge difference to get some new bars and bushings in - the squeak even went away...

I have the Eibachs, I like them - with Tarret spherical endlinks, it's pretty tight.
