Hello from Stuttgart
Dear Corvette fans,
dear forum members,
allow me to introduce myself.
My name Is Frank, I life in the area round Stuttgart / Germany. I read this great forum since many years.
My first Corvette was a yellow 2008 Z06. In 2015 I purchased a black C7 Z51. One of the first in my country.
I love the car. Have done some mods to increase the performance for some track use.
Z06 grill and Z06 trans cooler for better cooling. Z06 front and rear brakes, Z06 leaf springs. Cray Spider with Michelin Cup 2 for the track, lowering bolts and track alignment.
I enjoy driving the car.
Have a nice day and excuse my not always perfect english.
Frank

Guten Tag, Herr Frank. Welkommen. That's about as good as it gets for my German. Your English is quite good. Post some pictures of your C7 Corvette when you get a chance.
