    Well, Shell purchased the Horsehead factory and all of its property, and i wouldnt be surprised if it included the bar's property. But, Horsehead was suppsed to be out by March of last year and they're still dragging their feet - last i heard, Shell hired someone to help them get out by the end of this year... so maybe there will be one more year?

    i assure you, its possible..... my car sits absurdly low on coilovers, and i really don't have any issues.... no i can't just go wherever i want, but potholes have never been a problem

    What kind of coils are you running? You know how terrible a lowered SRA car is to drive? Everytime I hit a pothole I have to call my chiropractor to schedule an appointment to re-align my spine again lol

    I have the Pfadt adjustable coilovers... and i'm not kidding you when i say that the front bumper has 2" of clearance... the ride is certainly quite stiff, but I quite like it... its an acceptable trade off when you consider that my car has pulled 1.2g on the offramp from 376N heading to Midland, on a wet weather tire to boot... i have no idea what its fully capable of

    I spend enough time in my pickup truck, which sloshes around from side to side, to really appreciate the firm ride

    Guess that's why no one uses a SRA anymore.

    I would say I have about 2.5" of clearance if that from the K member.

    I hear you there. Although, I was surprised at how much the 6's have dropped too.

    I found a few C5 Z06's but I really don't need all that power, especially for how much I drive. Whtas the big differences between those generations?

    I'll go to that. That's just a mile or 2 from where I work. That could be the Cobras first cruise.
