Default Hello all.

Hello, new member to the Corvette forums here. I have been lurking around for a while, but just never had the motivation to sign up. I guess we should start with a little bit about me.

My name is JJ
I am 20 years old
Currently living in the small town of Georgetown Ohio, near Cincinnati
I work for a company called L-3 Fuzing and Ordinance, making fuses for our boys in Iraq.
I am the extremely proud owner of a 2002 Corvette Z06. Car is absolutely bone stock right now, with just under 33k miles on it. I am hoping for some mods in the near future, assuming my wallet agrees. I will be posting up some pictures very soon of the car. Sorry I missed the cruise in this past weekend in Kentucky, was just feeling to sick to go. I do hope to see you guys at the next one.

Thanks guys. I do absolutely love the car, and have found the forum very useful thus far. I have posted up some pictures of my car in the C5 Z06 section, as well as a problem I am having. Any input would be useful.

Welcome to the Forum
That's a lot of car there so make sure you can handle it before getting too aggressive on the throttle. Have fun

Thanks. I have actually owned the car for 2.5 years, and am quite experienced in driving it, and what unleashing that power can do if not done right.
