Hello from Ohio
Good afternoon, everyone. My name is Don, and I have been a car and motorsports enthusiast my entire life.
I've joined the Corvette Forum to learn more about the vehicles, participate in discussions, and will be looking to purchase a Corvette of my own sometime between late January and early April of next year. I've owned a few performance cars over the years, including an '89 Mustang 5.0 LX, and a '97 Camaro Z28. This will be my first Vette. I do a lot of my own vehicle maintenance, and intend to participate in car meets, autocross, and perhaps the occassional HPDE / Track Day event. The Mid-Ohio School looks pretty interesting.
As far as the Corvettes go, I am particularly interested in the C5 Z06, the C6 Grand Sport, and the C7 Z51s.
Happy to be here and to have the opportunity to learn from all of you.

Welcome to the Forum, Don, and best wishes with your search! Any of those would be nice rides for HPDE and/or track days!
