Thats funny you say because I switched from a Mustang to a Vette also. I was hesitant because I hated how all the LS1 guys come off as dominating ****** in the car world... but I realized 99% of them were Camaro/TA guys who are and always will be second best to the Vette guys whom rarely give any attitude at all. Welcome to the club! :thumbsup:

Nice FRC, from one high hp ex Cobra guy to another it will be the same modding madness different platform when you get started. I too was "Oh I'm only going to do this and that"

As I'm sure you already know you'll love the car, welcome to the light!
