Default Finally Got a ZR1

Hi Everyone,
Been dreaming of a ZR! since they first came out. Worked out a deal from this forum, waiting for the car to be delivered. A 2011 Torch Red with less than 10,000 miles. I Have a ford lightning with over 600 to the wheels, but weighs 5500 lbs. So 3300 lbs. with almost 900 should be fun can't wait until it's delivered
