World's 1st Manual C8 Corvette Drift Car - CAD Updates & Displaying at Irwindale - Ep. 12

We've been super busy prepping for the Formula Drift Finals at Irwindale Speedway, so we haven't made a lot of progress on the actual build of the car. However, there's a been a lot of behind the scenes work being done with CAD Chris, Cage Kits and the team at Weddle.
I'm also excited to announce that the C8 will be on display in the Heatwave Visual booth at Irwindale Speedway. So if you're there, be sure to swing by and check it out!
Thanks to everyone for following along as my team and I transform this flood damaged C8 Corvette into a full Formula Drift spec drift car!

Theres a clip of you being interviewed by Lonestar drift 4 years ago and you make a comment about building the first c8 drift car. You should use it as the outro

[@matthewguilford9340]

It be sick to see the exhaust exit where the middle tail light in the rear bumper is

[@ParagonPerformance]

Great update, love all the behind the scenes CAD! That collector is absolutely bonkers!

[@devincavanaugh1976]

Hope you win it all!!!

[@devynf3917]

Also rooting for you to take it all this weekend Matt!

[@jasonhovey815]

This car is gunna be insane. Can’t wait to see her rip. Love how you’re showing all the CAD planing

[@Hinkishere]

I really hope ITBs and a high reving TSP engine are in the future with that 8 to one collector.

[@davidkelley751]

I think 8-1 so long as it doesn’t have turbos or anything to restrict exhaust noise is key.
NA would be ideal. Nitrous would be dope. Centrifugal supercharged would be sick. Positive displacement supercharged would also be sick.
But can you imagine a massive roots blower (like the ones you see on like 1960s drag cars) sticking out of the rear hood

[@jimmydanc]

@@davidkelley751 dude in Australia drifts one, can’t think of his name. It’s a ls with a 471 on it with 8-1 headers in a s13

[@matthewguilford9340]

Just wondering, you have die-cast of the Corvette? I'd love to put one on the wall for decoration

[@FIPS-r2m]

When I grow up I want to be like you

[@hiimjustinw]

Come on man! We need an update!!!

[@Philsilva06]

how cool would exhaust flames be coming out of the deck lid area?

[@MrHarris-zx7mz]

Is it going to be supercharged too or just on nitrous?
