I just thought I would take the time to say hi. Joined this past spring and bought my first vette from a member. Unfortunately, I totaled that car but just Picked up a 2002 z06. Lol, I have learned that traction control is my friend
Been on a lot of forums for just about every vehicle and toy ive had over the past 8-10 yrs. Have actually made some good friends (in person) on forums.
I like to add value and I'm definitely a DYI'ER .....so I am willing to help as much as I can.
Many others here close to erie, pa?

Lol, yeah....that was a disappointing moment (5 min after accident). However, insurance co. Was nice to me and no one got hurt. So I was able to replace it with a newer model
