Default Hello from Southwest Florida

Hello- I just signed up the other day. I have a 2007 Z06. I had a 2001 Z06 I took delivery of in August 2000. Kept it for about a year and a half. When I was younger my Dad had one of the first 1990 ZR-1s, and a 1974 Corvette. I am a driving instructor for a couple of different clubs and also help teach a driving school with Derek and Justin Bell. I have a small collection of Porsches (currently 7) and a few other cars. I am in the process of totally outfitting my Z06 for the track. So far I have CCW wheels and Hoosiers. I tried performance pads with the stock brakes, but after 1400 miles its time for the stock brakes to go. Following that, seats, harnesses, etc. I think this is one of the most informative forums I have followed, having belonged first to Lamborghini talk, then some german car forums. I have learned a lot so far and look forward to a lot of valuable Corvette knowledge here.

Congrats on the 07 Z06!! You will be driving around for quite a while with a big "corvette grin" on your face! Welcome to the Forum. They are great for learning more about vettes and you will meet a lot of new friends.

Nice! You should cruise up to Boston Market on Saturday nights with one of your rides...I know it's mainly old school muscle, but I'd tell the guys to leave ya alone and that you're all right!!!
