Thanks! I grew up in a trailer in deep south Alabama so I do feel I am fortunate, blessed and grateful for all the things I have.

It's beautiful! Have you posted inside pix of your home? I love looking at homes. The only apps I have on my cell phone are weather.com and realtor.com as it is used by all the realtors in my area. I look at it every day.

Where do you live? A home without brick would be unusual where I live.

Again, beautiful!

Thanks! No I haven't posted any pictures of the inside. I maybe able to post some up later this week.
I live in Northern Virginia close to Washington DC.
We wanted a "farm house" feel to the home and didn't want brick and big columns so we choose to go with hardy plank and stone. The brick houses with columns are everywhere in my area and look more like a government building than a home when they are this size. Lol

The "race car" is was originally an 05 base but has zr1 wideband and twin turbo LSX setup. It is 1214whp of a beast that I'm setting up to run half mile events.

The other C6 is a 427 anniversary my GF bought new and we put a whipple 2.9 blower on.
It is 650 whp of fun and luxury. :-)

Thanks for entertaining all my questions over a beer. Your garage is hands down the sickest garage I have ever seen. Let me know when you're going to sell me that carbon 427 hood!

Anytime! I'm always excited to talk about cars. Gonna be a LONG time before the 427 hood goes anywhere.
If you're ever in my area in the car stop in and we'll put it on the dyno over another beer.
