As they say in autox, if you never hit a cone or get a DNF, then you're not pushing it hard enough. If you never spin around on the road, you're not pushing it hard enough. Contour just has screwy brakes and did have not great tires. The other day I hit the brakes in it in the rain and the back end came out like I was drifting. I replaced one wheel cylinder and not the other, so that is basically the problem.

Maybe a couple of you guys could post over in the SE MI forum where I have a post for this marked "anyone interested in the Dragon Run?" This "lighting a fire under there ass'" might actually work. BTW, the decision has been made, my Dad and I are taking his 01' C5. We're doing this because he's getting the Magnaflow exhaust installed and that will make for some good sounds down those winding roads for sure. For good measure, he also installed a K&N drop in, but that will come out next spring for an FIPK from K&N  We're less than 7 weeks away, Josh and Eric, where you guys at

I don't think he's going to mess with the suspesion as he just cruizes the car. As far as the S/C goes, well, if I win the lotto today, I'll get it taken care of for him Those things are super $$$$$. The one for the Z06 is like $7K. I think the exhaust, upcoming FIPK and Superchip reprogrammer will net a big enough gain to make my Dad happy but for now, the Magnaflow exhaust and drop in K&N are what were bringing and I can't wait to drive the Vette down there
