Mine is a black Grand Sport wide body ;ike the one in this photo;

I have seen customs, where they take the body off of a C5 and replace it with a replica body from an original 1954 vette.


Years ago AMA prostar had a 600 supersport class. It had the same rules as the road racing 600 supersport. Motors had to be stock, but highly tuned. The record was a Kawasaki ZX6R with an et around 9.60.

Very Sweet Vette Jay :evil: :evil: :evil:

Not the guy on the rigid! My bike had struts on it when I bought it and it took 1 trip and 1 expansion joint in a bridge to reaffirm my love for shocks. It felt like I broke everything.....lol

That's the long legs I was talking about before.

At the track, you see all kinds of things. At Skyview there's a guy that shows up with a GSXR1000 that runs 5.7x [1/8th mile] in street trim..aka, no bar, no slick. The guy can ride and those bikes are dam fast.

Ah, the culture of stupid. No helmet, no goggles, plenty of stupid set to a sound track of vulgarity.
Color has nothing to do with stupid.
White kids out here are now wearing goggles with designs on them- you can almost of see out, but looking AT them its some kind of design- a band, a logo etc
