Introduction
Just wanted to introduce myself. I don't currently own a Corvette but am considering purchasing one. I've previously owned 2 C4's (husband and wife) and a C5. I currently own a Ferrari 458, Ferrari F430 (for sale), BMW M3, a Porsche Carrera S and a Porsche Cayman S. My Cayman S is my DE track car. Sebring is my home course but I also run at VIR, Road Atlanta and Barber Motorsports (great track). I've had and am having transmission problems with the PDK in my Cayman due to track use (9 weekends a year or so) and the heat here in FL. I'm thinking about selling it when I get the transmission straightened out and buying a C7 for the track. Most likely a GS but I still have a lot of research to do before making a decision.
I belonged to this group when I owned Corvettes but haven't monitored it for several years.
Regards,
Rich

Rich - welcome to the forum and be sure to visit the C7 sections. You’ll find a lot of information on that generation of Corvette over there.
Enjoy while you can.
