Hello Corvette nation, I'm a long time browser of this site, and have found a wealth of information just browsing. Well I finally gave in and created an account. A little bit about myself, I'm an 29years old, and served in the Army for 8 years. I currently serve on my local Police Force. I am the proud and I mean proud owner of a 2007 Z06. I have finally found the perfect car for me.Last spring I traded in a 2007 M5 for the Z, and previously owned a Charger SRT-8 before the M.

Let me tell you, between these two cars, there is absolutely no comparison in performance. Of course the M5 had luxury over the Z, but after taking her out for a test drive and feeling that 505hp under my butt, I quickly parted ways with my beloved M5, and haven't looked back since.

Currently my car is at Race Proven Motorsports getting a custom cam, headers, and other goodies I look forward to chatting with other members, and gaining more knowledge about my vehicle. Be safe in your travels friends.
