Default Intro

Hello from NW Florida,
Im a long time car and motorcycle hound, x drag racer, love all motorsports really I guess. Long time corvette admirer but have never had the pleasure to own one, but at age 54 the time has come to remedy that situation. I don't have one yet but IM starting the journey to first listen and learn from you guy's then make an informed purchase, hopefully later this year or just after. IM certainly excited to be here!

a second generation big block car would work beautifully, but laziness and the desire for comfort will bring a LS3 C6 to my garage
