First time Dream Machine owner.

1999, six speed, coupe, already with upgrades; intake, headers, exhaust, stereo system, and a few miles (64,000).
Life is worth living. Bite the bullet, suck it up, drive a race car.
You really have to step on the gas to get that lovin feeling. What I really mean is stomping to the floor and hearing the MONSTER come ALIVE!!!

warm welcome

Thanks guys and any gals out there that have Americas Dream Machine.
It was a tough choice to do a Vette, the Ultimate or a 1987 Buick GN.
I remember pulling out from a 7-11, making a left turn and before I knew it, I had done a 180 and was in the on-coming lane.
That was me in my dads 87' T-type. It's like oranges and women, I love'em both so much but there can only be ONE, Corvette.
