Classic Corvettes does Rippie Doug Rippie Motorsports hosts a Open House Tech Day for the Classic Corvettes of Minnesota Club.
Today we hosted a Open house for a local Corvette club and I must admit that I had a great time. We build cars all day long and often into the night. It is refreshing to take a brake from the daily grind to meet Corvette enthusiasts who really enjoy seeing our operation and learning about the process of making Corvettes, Camaros and Impalas go fast. After a tour of the facility and some tech talks we put a few of the clubs member's cars on the dyno for some testing. We quickly showed how dyno tuning can pull extra horsepower from a car just by adjusting fuel pressure and air/fuel ratios. Afterwards we broke out the barbecue and cooked up some hot dogs and brats to feed all those power hungry Corvetters. Click on the thumbnail photos below for a larger picture
