Individual Liberty — Individual Responsibility

For those we lost, We will not forget 09/11/2001

“Our God given unalienable rights are given to us all as individuals. They tell us what we may do for ourselves, and they are the embodiment of liberty. The so-called rights that government gives to some of us are parcelled out to select groups as classes. They tell us what one class of people may require another to do for them, and they are the very essence of slavery.”

Yellow 1979 Sportsman Corvette

One of the better sportsman racers at Pacific Raceways traded in his El Camino for a mostly stock 1979 Corvette. It has the original engine, but it's got an Air Gap manifold that's just a bit too big for the engine. The hood has been altered a bit (underneath) so that more air will flow out of the engine compartment, taking away some of the heat. It's also been lowered, and given a bit of a rake, and a nice looking set of wheels.

Like most mid to late 70's Corvettes, it's not a screamer. This one does the quarter mile in just a shade over 15 seconds, but it looks like a dream, both inside and out.
