Been a member for at least 4 years now. I still own the 80 Vette and just recently bought the 03 Z06. Love both cars. It's great being back. Just gotta start learning more about the Z06 as it is a world of difference compared to the 80.

Default Amen to that

I have always liked the C3 design and have had many. The last one was a '78 Silver Anniversary that I installed a 400 TPI small block/ Th700r4 and 3.50 gears. Reworked and upgraded the suspension, brakes. But still nothing like my Z06. Welcome to the C5 area.

Welcome to the wonderful world of the C5 Z06. Glad you've kept your C3. Amazing how these cars have evolved. Fire away with questions on your Z06. The group over here is as helpful as on the C3 boards.
