Hello from Downunder!
Hi, my name is Chris and I have just purchased a 2006 Z06 to import into Australia and built as a race car. I have been racing sports cars at a state and national level in Australia for 10 years and am moving from a 400hp turbocharged MX5 (miata to you folk) to the Z06. I have raced and won at tracks like Phillip Island, Bathurst and most other tracks in Australia. I am self supported, do most of my own spannering and love beating the bigger teams!
Here is a couple of vids from my incar:

I'll get in early and say thanks to the vendors who support the corvette community for already answering a lot of my questions via email, I look forward to doing business with you.
Thanks
