Default I'm Back!!!

After selling my '99 vert last summer I am finally back in the family. Scored a deal on an '01 Z06 and love the power. I feels good to be back!

Thanks for the warm welcome! All it took was one test drive and I just couldn't pass up the power of the Z. Only problem now is I want more power. Anyone have any good ideas.
