Default Hello from Long Island
Hi All
I'm pick up my 08 Z06 this afternoon. I feel like a little kid. I'm turning in the 05 CTS-V. After 5 rear ends, I figured it was time.

I've already been surfing around the forum - what a wealth of information - wow. Just have to find it.

I'm sure I'm going to be having a lot of questions. The car is "machine silver" and is called Kodiak. She will be well pampered, but run hard. Like a race horse - born to run.

Good luck with it! OBI or Captree on Sunday mornings. It's like Vette City. Run it at the Corvette Challenge at E-town. There are two event left for 2008.

Wow, The OBI is still around I remember having a bunch of "Save the OBI" tee shirts 20 something years ago. Plus the ride to Captree was always fun, I'd love to do it in Kodiak
