DFW Area ZR-1 owners
Just trying to get an idea of how many ZR-1 owners there are in the DFW area. There are a few that I know and some that I have had no idea that they were here until I ran across them. If any of you Z guys are local to DFW, please let me know. I am trying to expand the knowledge base around here and make it available with hands on, if possible. Thanks, guys!

DFW ZR-1 here.
My name is Joel and I am back in Arlington after 5 years in South Florida.
I have been around awhile like Sam (8388) and would love to get together with all you guys.
We need to keep the mains well lubricated through the winter!
Mine is currently down with an irritating crank but no start issue but with the help of a friend (who has a tech 1) I should be running by Jan 1. If not, the
Z06 will have to do.

Would love to see that Z on the dyno when she is up and running! The Z06 will do as well
I wish you woulda replied yesterday to this post since we were actually in Arlington! The dyno we used was at a place called Alamo Autosports right off Cooper street and Colorado. I promised myself I would dyno my car everytime I made a new mod so I forsee several more visits to that place in the future
By the way, I live close to you in Cedar Hill...

I will take the old with the new
Glad to meet you. I'm looking for all of the ZR-1 guys! This is a great car and I want the owners of these great cars to know everyone in the ZR-1 community be it for help or friendship or just running around having a good time. Being where we are at in this region, we don't have to shut down for the weather. I am open to any suggestions as to what you guys what to do. Let's have some fun!

BTW guys, the corvettes usually park at the southwest corner of the parking lot. If you're going north on the service road, once you enter the lot, make an immediate right turn. Bring a camera, if there's a good turn out, you will see cars you only see in magazines. Not unusual to see a couple Bugatti Veyrons along with dozens of other exotics.

How many cars are there usually there? Does the dealership park them or is that just gentlemen's agreement? Sounds like this will be great!
