Default So......

Whats new fellas? Is everyone in hiding now that the - DA days are gone?

I've been away for a couple weeks and got married and all that jazz. Please paypal me your wedding gifts to fund a C6 Z06 drivetrain if I don't sell my piece.

A pic for the naysayers.

Haha, luckily she likes going to the track and doesn't want me to sell the car. I'm secretly trying to wiggle my way into a C6Z later this year if all goes well. Just got to get her Yota paid off so there will only be one car payment.

Not being at the track has been killer, I just can't stand the thought of exploding another rear which has kept me away more than anything. I don't have dentist salary pockets.

Congrats Blu,

Back in the day, my wife travelled all over the world with me racing - but I knew there weren't many like her so I've kept her all this time. Go racing together!
