So it would be good to link up to actually talk to people who enjoy vettes as much as I do and to be able to carry on a convo that doesnt break down into, "dude the intergra I used to have could have totally beat this car." I mean seriously? Or "my '13 kia optima fully loaded was better than this car." Lol. How can u respond to that.

I'm totally with you on both accounts.

I don't have a lot of friends that are car people.

There are more threads in that southwest section. For local events you should look there.

Here is one in the midcities on wednesdays:

O.K guys, here is my final product, with 19" and 20" back RUFF Racing and 1.5 inch lowering. But I'm still amateur against your profy pics. One day I'll get it too.
After spending weekend in garage this is what came out of it.

I live in Allen near Parker City/Road and would love to meet up for a cruise or gtg/track day sometime... someone pm me if something goes down.

I sold my C6 and FRC, but still have keys to the wife's FRC. Her car was nicer than either of mine anyway.

With luck Ill have a C6 A4-Z51 here in the garage soon.

McKinney since 2007.

I like Toque's group of guys (see them at the Cars-n-Coffee), but meeting with them on Sunday evenings doesn't sit well with the wiffe. If there was some other weekend time, I'd jump at it.
