Default Another newb from SoCal

Hi there, I've been lurking for a little while and I figured it was time to join and say hello.

I recently acquired a '02 Z06 from a good friend of mine in North Carolina and it should arrive either this Friday or Saturday.

As of right now, it's mostly stock with 20k miles and Hotchkis swaybars. Thanks and I'm looking forward to learning more from you guys.
