Hello to the rest of you crazies:
Glad to find this forum as I appreciate all the information everyone seems so willing to share. As an introduction, I've been a Corvette owner since 1961, when I purchased a '59 283ci 3spd for $2100. Had to wait another year before I was old enough to get a license and drive it. Next was a '64 convertible small-block 4-spd, followed by a '67 roadster w/ side exhaust (which I still own and drive-summers only). The progression continued with a '79 t-top and a '02 convertible. Both of those eventually morphed into a new '06 Velocity Yellow Z51 convertible which I just picked up on Jan 6,06.
Must be something in the blood.......

Thanks - The '67 roadster was a blast when I was a lot younger, and now all these years later, it's even more fun (also I don't HAVE to rely on it for transportation, just FUN). It's a little bit of work - the constant shifting in heavy city traffic and the lack of power steering still sucks. But the LOOKS and comments push all that to the back burner and I'm a twenty-something again!!
But I'll tell you, this '06 is really something else! Can't wait for better weather to see what 400hp is all about.......
I'll let you know in a couple of months
