Default Hello from France !

Hello everyone, a hello from France.
Me is Quentin, 27 years old, I live in Basse-Normandie. I am commercial for fitness rooms.
Regarding my cars: After having a C4 red LT1 automatic gearbox of 1992, then a red C5 of 1999 automatic gearbox, here I am recently with a black C5 FRC of 1999 with a manual gearbox. I prefer to be able to shift gears.

This is another pleasure
​​​​​​​Looking forward to reading you dear friends!

Welcome...
I went to the 2017 LeMans race with the Corvette Museum. We toured Omaha Beach and Normandy. Beautiful country France.

Welcome to the forum. Nice FRC you bought.

Unless your car has had some upgrades to the engine done, your HP rating is 345. That was stock for the ‘99 FRC.

Anyway, nice B&B exhaust and I like your garage floor.
