My brothers and sisters of the C5 preformance section, I present to you my latest purchase.

An 01 Speedway White w/ mod red interior. I've been wanting this particular combo for over 4 years.

Goodluck with it, Peter. It should make a fine index car.

Nice ride dude, love the white C5Zs.

And we already talked in detail about it last night but if at all possible, try and do both the gears AND the higher stall, it will really help keep you in the 11.40s/11.50s while deep staged during those really hot summer days.

Congrats! Looking forward to seeing it in the opposite lane.

And listen to Marc on the TC/gears. There's a lot of 11.50 racing to do in 2012.

Lookin good Pete! That should be a very reliable rig for double duty as a bracket car and fun cruiser. The light weight of the z06 helps in all fronts.

But you sure you're going to be able to just point and steer??? I enjoy the challenge of putting a good pass together in a manual car.

I guess being competitive would be some consolation for not being able to shift gears.
