    Crazy!

    In addition, if driving at night with high beams you might be able to see 500 feet. At 186mph you need about 1000 ft to stop. so if you see an object, like say a tractor trailer with no lights, its too late, yer done for.

    Question C4 Front Air Inlet Screens.

    I just spent a good half hour trying to root leaves and crap from the front air inlet.

Has anyone installed a front...

    Crazy!

    Just for giggles and maybe add some thought: At a speed of 300 km/h (186 mph), a C8 Corvette is traveling at 83.3 meters per second. Because aerodynamic downforce and tire grip are the only things keeping the car stable at this extreme velocity, it doesn't take a massive boulder to cause a...

    Yep, just watched a video of a late 60's chevelle 4 spd manual, "givven 'er". Constant steering correction just to stay in his lane.

    It would certainly protect the bed, bu how does one get tire treads to lay down flat and make a mat?

    I had never heard of Crosley. Google it, its a very interesting read. Crosley even produced a sports car, similar in appearance to a bug eye sprite and before the 53 corvette. The company started in early 1900's and disappeared in 1951.
