Mallett race corvette

They were nice enough to wash it the day before for me.
So all I had to do was do a quick wipe down.

It has a 427 in it. And only driven on the track, the emergency brake has been removed.

Started of with taping the trim around the windows. Then pulled out the supplies, to start the bling process.

The Gameplan
I went with Menz SIP and a white ccs 6 inch pad, with the DeWalt. Speed between 1400-1600 rpm. Once that was done, I went over the vette with the pc. Optimum Polish and a white 5.5 pad. I used the cobra blue indigo mf towels on this detail.

LSP
I went with DP Spray Surface Shied Paint Sealant. And a cobra super-plush deluxe mf.

Tires
Surf City Beyound Black one applied once to tires.

Re: Mallett race corvette

Nice Job Ed! Looks like kind of a funky wing (for lack of a better description). Were you affected by the recent tornados in Atlanta?

Gary, we miss'ed the tornado's in our area. They were either west of us, or south of us. A friend had one drop some tree limbs on his car, not too major. Thanks for asking

yeah, but I bet with the additional downforce, it may be capable of driving through a tornado.

Haha! what do you really think about that wing, Scott?
I have a friend that has same type wing on his black Z06. Though he's aware of the attention it gets, and how ricey his car looks, he says it really does work at the track. He's an avid autocross, and circuit racer

Re: Mallett race corvette

Great Job on the Vette. I had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Chuck Mallet here in Columbus Ohio. He was here with a Yellow Vette. It did not have the spoiler. Bob Mc Dormain Cheverolet annual Corvette Show. He also had a Cadillac CTS with a 600hp engine in it. Nice Job!
