Say hi to the Noob :)

[32valvZ]

Hi guys & gals, a few of you probably know me from the CF (81c3) is my username overthere...anyway, I just got my new to me Z today. I bought a 92 #091, with 45000 miles on it. I have only driven it 40 miles or so today, though not a DD,I plan to drive it as much as possible.

I've owned a few other Vettes including an 81,89,94vert & currently an 02Z06 along with my ZR1. I love red, so yea, I have a red Z06 & ZR1.

So far, I really like the ZR. I see a few small things that need attention, but for a 15 year old car, not too bad at all. She still rock-n-rolls down the road!

Thanks for the invite Z Factor!

Hullow to U!

One noobie to an other...I'm still breathless over my "new" 90 Z!!

I have a few things to tinker with, but new tires top the list right now. What a BEAST these Zs are!!!

Same here...Not a DD, but intend to drive it when I can. Unfortunately, WINTER is coming on Thursday. I'll be putting her in hibernation pretty soon, but hopefully there will be a few more sunny dry days before the ice and snow (and SALT(!)) is here for the duration.

Colorado, eh? Where 'bouts? I lived in CO long enough to adopt it as my "home state". I lived in Franktown for a bit, but most of my 3.5 years were spent in Bailey (about 45 mi SW of Denver, up at the 8500 foot level). I really noticed a drop in performance between IL (600 feet amsl) and Bailey (8500 feet amsl) when I drove my (then) '95 LT1. Can we say turbo charging???

Good to see ya!

Hi Paul, yea, I was drooling over your Z when you posted pics on CF.....I've been looking for a good year now & the "right" one finally came along.....although not the perfect time financially, I couldnt pass her up at the price I got her for.

Man, I'm up at 6:30am, the first thing I do is go to the garage to look at my Z.......I'm in love. 40 yrs old & feeling like a school boy:mrgreen:

I know exactly where Franktown is, I used to work in Kiowa, when I was in tech school. I live in Canon City now & have been here 12 years. I know what you mean about altitude sickness for cars.......I"m at 5300', so not quite as bad as 8500'...but still robbing those precious ponies!

Thanks for the welcome to you & everyone else as well.:cheers:

:hello: Hello and welcome! Nice looking Z. It must be great to drive in the mountains. Great pics. I like the "Curve Sign" with the safe speed of 60 mph. That's the speed limit here in the east!

Welcome
How does it like the elevation?
Sure looks sharp

[32valvZ]

Welcome

I have nothing to compare it to as far as lower elevation.....all I can say, is I can just imagine what it feels like at sea level.:mrgreen: It runs good, no coughs or stumles. I did notice that when I first took it off the transport truck it was blowing some black smoke, then white, then grey, then none.....just the ECM adjusting for atmospheric pressue & the elevation.
No smoke now & it runs great.

That was the Skeeter Spray Option (SSO) and a very rare option, indeed:thumbsup:

[Zr1 Destroyer]

Welcome........:handshak:



You'll have to take that to Bandimere next spring to see what she runs!

[flyin ryan]

Welcome........:handshak:



You'll have to take that to Bandimere next spring to see what she runs!that might be ugly, just factor it to sea level before you post your times here. ET x .9549 = SEA LEVEL time, MPH X 1.0773= SEA LEVEL :wink:

[Zr1 Destroyer]

that might be ugly, just factor it to sea level before you post your times here. ET x .9549 = SEA LEVEL time, MPH X 1.0773= SEA LEVEL :wink:For sure for up here......if you don't have a stock zr1 running at a 100% this thin air will eat a guys car alive!

[Arctic91]

Hey... another ZR-1 noob in CO!! Great looking car. We'll have to get all the local members together when the weather cooperates. Maybe next year's Vettes on the Rockies, if not before?

Scott

[Jason 91]

I need to make to Vettes of the Rockies at some point. I've lived here for 4 years now and have not made it there for one reason or another each year. :cheers:

Jason

[win1876]

I have made it every year since 1995. Its alot of fun, the Looking Glass Club of Denver does an excelllent job of putting it together.=D>
