Hello all. I just joined the forum at the request of gmkillr. Here are some pics of my 2009 Z06:

Holy crap. If I have to remove the body to install some longtubes I think I'll pass on a Vette. :rofl:

Seriously though it sounds like an awesome ride. Will it be ready for race season? Taking it to PRP?

With everything getting installed all at once (and hopefully never again) that's how my builder usual does these. It's not all that difficult to do and it's easier to put everything on and torque to spec. I'll admit, I hate seeing it like this though.
It should be done in time for race season and I'll definitely be hitting up PRP.

Thanks Dave! I'm not getting my hopes up though. MAYBE in perfect weather/DA down at MIR, but even that's a stretch. I know I'll be happy with the car either way!

Thanks Rob. Hopefully when we get our cars done, we can go for another cruise. Any plans on going to PRP this year?

Sounds great! Hit me up when you're in the mood to cruise or going to PRP. I probably won't hit the track as much as before for the same reason as you. Although, I have NEVER seen someone blow through as many axles as you have lol. I wouldn't mind giving autoX a try for the heck of it though.

Thanks for the link. That looks like a blast! My car SHOULD be done by then. Are there any instructors or do you just have to fend for yourself?

TrackX is like AutoX just on the big track, turns 1-8 as fast as you can, no instruction but it's only $60. Have to go to one of the HPDE/PDE's for that, def on my radar as well for this season.

The HPDE's are a ton of fun. Mark A instructs at some of them.

Turns frighten my car, that's why I drag race.

It's slow too, but that's not the point.
