Last project... Well I guess some day you have to push yourself away from the table and move on.... Gonna miss ya here in C5 Gen but I do know how to get a hold of ya... To be honest I can't wait to see and ride in your beast you have now. I can't even imagine what the heck you will do to a C6 Z.... Well at least I will have a hand in the last project on your car....

Just remember one thing when you make that big move to the C6, don't forget to ......
