Default 1st time on forum...

Hello everyone.....

1st time on corvette forum.... I am checking this website out and wished I should have found out about this website earlier. Owner of a 99 black vette coupe for two years. Made the switch for import tuners and love every moment of it.
A couple of questions for everyone.
1. I need information on a vette car club in the Los Angeles, Ca. area. i now have time to join.
2. Recently replaced factory eletronic shocks with bilsteins.. Anyone known how to bypass 80 mph speed limit control.
thanks,,
