Do any of the Houston area owners regularly meet up?
I've been researching the ZR-1 and watching prices for about a year now, and I think I'm ready to get serious about looking for a car. I have some general ownership questions, but most of all I'd like to just see some examples of a healthy car. I know the registry has the purchasing checklist, but I think I would feel better about traveling to see a ZR-1 if I had talked to owners. Thanks for any help, Ryan |

On the registry marketplace, there's a '91 Quasar Blue in CO that's in my price range that I was going to target first. I'm looking for a 1991+ preferably under 20K with the way prices are looking.

My 91 has about 5k track miles - just wore out tires, brake pads and a few wheel bearings.
The LT5 is bulletproof. If you get to an oil or coolant over temperature situation, the stock ECM will not let the secondaries open up. Where have you been running your CTS-V ?

Wow, 5K miles is a lot of track time. I was taking my CTS-V down to Texas World Speedway in College Station. That track is nice for the higher HP cars to stretch their legs.
