I enjoy the C4 with it's classic weight distribution dynamic for sure. I have a c6 and it's great when you find the line on a road course, but get loose on the street and it ***-arounds very quickly.

Boy the pattern of these crashes are eerily similar. Again, here.

Re: Boy does this look familiar
I don't want to throw rocks at a tire company....but this is testing the limits of coincidence, no?
What kind of tires do these guys have in common, if any? I'm not fluent in NHRA rules, so this maybe a stupid Q. If you run in stock class, what are the rules for tires? Oh, I just thought of another dumb Q. Were all those crashes from tire issues or was there a rear end failure involved? All of that was depressing to watch!

Re: Boy does this look familiar
Look's like it could be broken axle syndrome , due to wheel hop. Very common with the C6's. Passenger side axle breaks and the car hook's right. Driver thinks he can drive through it....suprise.
Never lift has it's complications. |
