Hello everyone just wanted to introduce myself. Im down in New Mexico and recently purchased a 2009 base Corvette. Im coming from a 2013 Camaro SS with the 1LE package. Ive had a few vehicles (13 5.0,08 bullitt,03 Mach, 97 Trans AM),but this is my first corvette. So far I love it! My camaro had bolt ons and a BT stage IV cam I enjoyed it but it just felt sluggish still which Im sure was due to its weight. Im not sure which direction to go with this car and look forward to learning from all of you.
