new C6/ZO6 owner

[Chaos]

Hello all,

I live in New Jersey and last August lost two Corvettes due to flooding from Hurricane Irene. My 87 red/red Z52 coupe (owned since 89) had 26K miles on it and w/some basic mods was runnin' 13.30's @ 103mph at the track. I also had a white 2000 hardtop FRC bone stock except for a ProFlow cold air intake installed by the PO. Man I loved both those cars and have been going through some serious Corvette Withdrawals!

Well, as they say sometimes opportunity knocks and it sure has for me as I am now the owner of a 2008 Jetstream Blue 2LZ ZO6 that just turned 12008 miles !!!!! Navigation and chrome wheels too!

Insured and titled this past Thursday. I learned pretty quickly not to mash the go pedal to the floor!!! I've been smilin' ear to ear !!!!

Sorry to hear about the loss of your former Corvettes, but I have to say that you made a fantastic decision to get into a C6 Z06!!! You will wonder why you didn't do it sooner!

Congratulations!!!

Sorry about the loss of you Vettes!

You picked a nice replacement however.

Thanks for the kind words. The ZO6 is a great driver on the street but I'm convinced I really need to get her on a road circuit to fully appreciate not just the power but the brakes and handling as well. I still can't beleive I'm driving a 505hp $80K Corvette!!!!!
