Default Hello from Las Vegas!
Hey everyone, I thought I would take a moment to introduce myself. My name is Mike and during the week I am in commercial development, but on the weekends I am at the race track! I currently own/run/drive for my time attack race team, Double Down Motorsports. We currently campaign a 750whp Nissan 350Z in competition. Anyways, onto the Corvettes...

First is an '05 Coupe that we took delivery of at the factory in Bowling Green. It is very lightly modded with a Corsa exhaust, Lingenfelter thermostat, and some color matched bits. It used to have 19" iForged wheels but I have since taken them off to sell them and the car.











Next is a '65 Corvette that we are about to start restoring...
