I had to go with the S2K. Although a lot has been done to that Vette, there is a lot I would take back to stock if it were mine. Too much chrome and flames, not to mention, I could not have a sub setup like that in the back of a Vette.

I'm gonna keep voting for Gary. That S2k is clean, but its just typical honda. No other way to describe it. "Lets drop the car and make it hella flush. . . yeahhhh, this has never been done before!" It is very clean, and I do like it, but every time I look at Gary's vette, I find something else thats trick that he's polished/modified/etc on top of being stupid fast and clean.

If an older guy can handle it, I am sure you could.

LOL, I came in here to post something pretty much identical to this.

I know the Corvette isn't everyone's cup of tea, but IMO it should've won the tournament last year and I'm going to vote for it every round this year. The amount of work into that car is insane and even though it has a few things I don't like, I respect the shit out of it and it looks insane in person.
