New Atomic orange 08 owner here!
Hello everyone,
I have been a drag racer all my life and a member of LS1tech for almost 20 years. We have had a bunch of LS powered F-bodies over the years as well as our other current cars, a 68 TT Camaro and a 69 Chevelle which are both LS powered.Our new addition to the family is a 2008 Atomic orange C6 A6. We bought this car to replace our 2002 Sunset orange WS6 Trans Am that we sold a couple of years ago and miss very much. We have been wanting a Vette for quite some time and finally decided to make the plunge when we found this one!
Car is completely stock 3LT model with the LS3, A6, 2.76 performance rear gear and dual mode exhaust. I plan to keep it mostly stock but the wife and I do plan to drag race it from time to time, but mainly just our fun street cruiser.
Hopefully I can not only use this forum to meet fellow Corvette owners and gain some knowledge, but maybe even have some useful knowledge to share.
Thank you,
Gary
