Hi everyone, I'm Mike, and I'm addicted to cars.

I just purchased a 2009 Z06 2LZ with 23,7xx miles.
Car has a lot already done to it... lingenfelter cam msd intake manifold air intake ECS 2200 supercharger alkycontrol meth kit aftermarket clutch, and of course valves and guides were replaced. It was originally tuned by ECS and I'm going to JTM Motorsports this week (long island NY) for them to check it out over again. Its currently running on ~9lbs of boost which i dont plan on increasing, but seems to be running really rich. Other than that it runs real strong and sounds fantastic. Ive been in love with these cars for so long now and I'm so happy I actually have one!
I've had a 68 camaro for 14years that im now selling due to picking up this Z.
This forum has already helped me with info so I figured I would say Hi officially

Do vette owners wave to eachother? Or throw up a hand?
I had a subaru wrx for a little while and the best thing about it was the "subie wave" all day long

You might get various answers, but the tradition, dating way back, is a wave. To me, a wave, a hand, a flash of headlights are all great. I waved out the window to a C7 driver as he passed me in the left lane recently and he waved and threw me a “hazard light” flash on the pass by. It’s all good!
