I'm in the oil business. I make my money from the big oil companies, not you guys. LOL
Thought I would let you guys in on something. I recently sent my '06 Corvette Z06 to a company called Katech in Detroit. They build the race engines for GMs Corvette, Cadillac, GPX and GTO racing. I'll get the car back in May and when I do, I have been asked to let a certain magazine do a feature on my 2 Corvettes in June. I told them only if they include my '89 IROC in the article. This should be interesting since it's a Corvette magazine.
I'll keep you guys updated.
Cheers

Did you have the hood louvers and the front grill painted when you got your car painted? Looks damn good.

I'll post pics of the wheels as well.
I've been driving the car as a daily for the last couple of weeks. Giving my SS Silverado a break. Been getting lots of looks on the road. I gotta tell you guys, it's not the fastest car I own... but it sure is fun.
Back in '89, I was 25 years old and I couldn't even afford to look at one, much less own one. And now I got one. Ain't life great?
