The attached to detail on your install looks great I am proud to have Granatelli TT system on your beast
One of the reasons, a big reason, I went to Corey's shop is the attention to detail, and the honest approach to this kind of stuff... He brought me out of the clouds, yet is still managing this amazing build for me...

So glad to see it coming along so quickly. It will give you time to do a little road tuning before C5Fest 2.

...and you can't go wrong with JR's TT kit. What a great setup !!!
Corey will have it all straightened out for me by the time I get home... I really wish I could have been around for more of it, but I got to pay for it as well.. That having been said, the only tuning left to be done will be on the loose nut between the steering wheel and the drivers seat... On my first drive, I hope with Corey with me, I'm sure he will have a crescent wrench and one of those drivers ed passenger side brake pedals...

Joe is an amazing friend... We pretty much decided we are going to ship those wheels and tires to Chandler, and put them on the car when we get there... There may be three of us using them at one time or the other... they're only tires right... whats a couple of tires among friends, friends that will drive 60 or 70 miles one way to pick up the tires, wait for the wheels to be delivered and then go have them mounted and balanced...

C5 is an amazing family of Good People, amazing cars, and friends....

See above... Corey said the factory tires may not survive the dyno pulls and break in... so.... what the heck...

Corey will also make a couple of passes in my car at the track to determine the stability and handling at the launch, and at the top... He's more qualified than I am to do so... makes me feel better... Full service Shop... that cares...
