Yes, I went to Elementary and Middle school in Redding, then High school in Bethel. My family currently lives near the lake in New Milford.

Did you grow up in CT?

Not only a forum, but a Reunion as well.
I was the chairman of the 1st Grand Sport Corvette Reunion which was a huge success. Held at Sebring 1978.
Presently my brother Chris owns the 002 Eagle GTP Corvette recently restored, and I own the 003 Eagle GTP Corvette just starting the Rebuild.

Really want to have her at Daytona April 9&10

Crew Chief keeps telling me she's almost ready

Meanwhile here's a cool video of DP. She took 2 Class wins & 2 Podium finishes. Still working towards wining the FARA Cup this year
