Default Proud 2017 GS Owner

Hello Everyone,

Well I never thought I would make it on this fourm. Fortunately I made out well on my last build which was a 2013 Procharged Challenger. I was able to pay off the remainder of my bills and step up into an absolutely amazing dream car at 31 years old. I have been a fan of Corvette Factory racing since the C5.R days, so I am familiar with the amazing history. I have been an active duty Marine for 12 years now and currently in San Diego.

Now with the good stuff. I do 1/2 mile racing so this car is being set up for that. I currently have an A&A Supercharger with Methanol pushing 662WHP. Also have the full front end and rockers protected by XPEL and the rest of the car has CQUARTZ Reserve on it. I have been working on cars since I was 14. I hope to be an asset to this community.
