Default New C5 Z06 owner

hey all, I just picked up a 2002 z06 yesterday, Yellow, 19,000 miles, mostly stock aside from Corsa catback, Hurst shifter, and an intake

I instruct HPDEs, so the Z will receive quite a few additions near term such as
Roll bar
Race seats to support 6-pt
6-pt harnesses
Wilwood 6-pots
2-piece floating rotors (with SRF fluid and Raybestos ST47’s)
External oil cooler
real brake ducting setup
Aero (I make CF parts fairly successfully)
various others

Car is incredible so far! I’m thrilled to be a Z06 owner!

I had a 2014 Mustang GT most recently (90% Track dedicated... fun but the Z is a definite upgrade)

Thx all! I’ve apparently become a Chevy guy overall, as a Tahoe owner (tow car) and 2006 Cobalt SS with 224,000 miles and still running strong!

Z shall be a hoot though
