Default First post here!

Hi, guys! Just wanted to introduce myself. I own APEX Motorsports, and we (currently) specialize in street and racing upgrades for Mustangs and Vipers. I've had a few Mustang customers sell their cars and buy Z06s, so I've come to have a lot of respect for them!
Last weekend, one of those customers, Rick Bailey, gave me a ride in his bone-stock '02 Z06 at Sears Point, and let me tell you, I was thoroughly impressed! Now I want one!
Anyway, we'll be starting to upgrade Z06s in the near future, so check out our website. We also have a Dynojet, so any of you local Z06 guys are welcome to contact me (bill@apexmotorsports.com) for more information.
By the way, we're a Corsa dealer and use them exclusively for our Viper customers. I might order up a C5 kit and see how it performs. Anyone out there have any experience with it?
I look forward to having some good tech conversations with you all!

Welcome Bill,

I'm a former customer with the yellow Saleen S351R that we couldn't get to pass smog. Well after Saleen took 4 months to complete the job I sold the car off and bought a Corvette. Hope Byrons doing good too.

Is Dave Spencer still working for you?

Don't limit yourself to just the Z06. I'd love to use your shop again for some more serious work down the line.
