Default An Introduction...

HI, my name is Jeb Burnett and I'm new to the CorvetteForum. I've been on the Vettenet for a long time so if there are any Vettenetters on here, you'll probably know me. I'm a commercial real estate broker by profession but my real passion is the speed shop business and precision machine shop business. I serve as marketing director for a speed shop here in Little Rock called Auto Sports Center and we have a subsidiary; Precision Performance Engines that's our machine shop. I've built several motors for Vettenet members. My wife and I are both Vette fanatics (I've only strayed to the darkside a couple of times) and own three:
Mine: 1990 ZF6/Z51 coupe that's HEAVILY modified (see performance section)
Hers: 1985 A4/Z51 coupe that's also pretty heavily modded.
Ours: 1977 L82; our latest purchase. A 51k original owner car that was stored for almost 20 years...I stole it...What can I say the guy was a squirrel!
Shops: 1966 coupe. NHRA Super Stock 'C' 440" big block, G-Force 4-speed, a true dragcar, what can I say. 5-time nat'l record holder for both ET and MPH as well as a 7-time Nat'l event winner.
Anyway, I look forward to future contact with those on the board...I've always found these to be a wealth of knowledge; I hope I can contribute as well as take away a little. I'll post more info and pics of all the cars when I figure out how...I'm kinda computer illiterate most of the time (except on DFI, and other stand-alones).
-Jeb Burnett
