Default First driving course

I completed the 2 day Tracktime perfomance school in Virgina this past weekend, and all I can say is what I've seen everyone else here say ... WOW!! :eek: It was also an excellent opportunity to meet some other great vette owners, and thankfully I wasn't the only one who came in without a clue how to drive this beast!

I must also thank and wholeheartedly agree with all those who have posted in the past saying that the first mod should be the driver

:steering: I learned so much in 2 days but know that I'm still a looooonnngg way from utilizing all the capabilities of the Z. No engine mods for me until the driver is at least 75% modded.

Well.... you've really done it now! Next you'll be buying track tires, changing brake fluid, reading Skip Barber books, dreaming the line at your favorite track and searching the web for cheap track time. Ask me how I know :lol:
Enjoy the magnificant obsession, it sounds like you are focused on the most important piece of equipment :yesnod:
