Default New z06 owner in the Bay Area

Hey all, I just picked up my C5Z 4 days ago. I'm very interested in meeting some people in the bay. Weather's been pretty sucky though. I absolutely LOVE the car. Fricken awesome

Let me know if there's anything going on in the upcoming days / weeks.

Thanks !

Always a Saturday morning gathering at MSI up in Roseville. Lots of Corvette owners be there from 8 to noon for coffee and donuts.
Nice run for the Vette on Saturdays.

Keep checking this forum..lots going on throughout the Bay Area.
The CF is full of great information about our cars.

Enjoy,

Haha, I have a 2002 Corvette z06, I believe it's Victory Red? Not sure. I'm BONE STOCK, but My Vararam Intake is coming Monday, but I think i'm going to leave it uninstalled for about a month, i want other things, like x-pipes + a decent catback + headers + a tune before I do it.


I heard Synergy Motorsports is an awesome shop. I came from the DSM world, and I used to go to FFTEC, if anyone here has heard of that.

I look forward to meeting some of you guys, I actually only have Sundays and Mondays off though

Oh well. Thanks for all the welcomes !

Welcome to the family! Nice to see another import guy (like myself) come over to the other side. And you picked an awesome car as well!

I know Sean over at FFTEC. Did you work with him? He does most of the tuning over there. Known that guy since high school and he put together homemade turbo kit for my Civic HB while back.

Anyways welcome and hope to see you around!

Yea, I've found other corvette owners to be very friendly, unlike some import owners. I've found that nearly every vette I pass up at least waves or something. Interesting, haha. Sean put together kits for my friends Kamil & Luis for their AWD DSM's, those 4 cylinders put down 400+ down to the wheels. Kamil's puts down 513 to all wheels. Heh.

I hope to see you guys once the weather clears up, it'd be nice.
The crossover is amazing, never ending power haha.

This seems like a common trend.

DSMs are what paid for my Z06 though. ;-)
