Default Yet another rookie

Hello friends, alot of hi I'm new to the forum threads, so you guys and gals might be tired it, but I feel it is appropriate to introduce myself as the newest rookie to come here knowing virtually nothing....except he has a kick a$$ car. I promise alot of stupid questions about mods and upgrades for my new 04, (purchased in Sept), and every now and than will attempt to contribute a Canadian take on things...that should be amusing at least.

Hey fellow Canuck. I'm a little ways away in cold snowy Sask. Can't wait for spring.

Welcome aboard. This is by far the best Vette web site around. The guys and gals are great with TONS of advice and oh ya....Get ready for MOD FEVER. This site has already cost me a bunch of money...lol. The worst part is I just got my car before the first snowfall and havent been able to drive it. It's just sitting in the garage waiting for the sun to come out melt all this DAMN SNOW !!!!!.
