Default Back to the Sandbox - Sleep Z06...for now.


It's back to the Sandbox for me again (Afghanistan-USMC). As time comes closer to leaving, there are many thoughts that run through my head; Wife, Kids, family, and my beloved Z06! I have had a blast over the last year at Corvette Shows, numerous other Car Shows, Dragstrips, and AutoX events. I feel at peace knowing that my Z06 is maintained and manicured at the highest level...all while not being afraid to get down and dirty at the strip and AutoX. I can honestly say this is the greatest and exhilarating car I have ever owned.


2nd. Thank everyone here on multiple levels. I have gained and learned so much knowledge from many different owners. I have also sold and purchased many items I needed without ANY issues. I look forward to seeing and hearing from you guys upon my return. Semper Fidelis

Stay safe and thank you.

BTW is your car stock height or lowered on stock bolts?

Take care Beasley1, as others have said ~ Thank you for your service! My Son is also deploying in the next couple of weeks for the Air Force. I am very proud of him and all US Military Servicemen and women. If it weren't for you, and your like, we may not even have the freedom to enjoy these Corvettes we so love. We hope to have your 6, here back home!

I served back during Desert Storm and very much appreciate those that serve and the sacrifices they make. Take care, keep your eyes open, and come back in one piece.
