Default Another Florida owner

I have been lurking around the forum picking up some great info. I have always been a Chevy guy but never really a Corvette fan. I built and raced a 383 powered 67 Camaro back in the early 90's when I was at Ft Bragg. After that I owned a 95 Z28 as sensible transportation for a couple years. I haven't had a go fast car in about 15 years now but just recently bought a 2002 C5 6 speed coupe with 51K miles. Its an ok car, a little disappointed in the build quality but it will only be driven a couple hours on the weekend as I have a company car as a daily driver. It will get the job done. I am finding a lot of good info on the forum.



The new weekend ride! Should get me to the dropzone in a timely manner.
