My ZR-1 will remain about 95% OEM (5% for things like brakes, tires, oil filter etc)...now my C6 is a totally different issue >>

Pretty much finished my mods. Mounted OEM Z06 wheels and GY F1 Supercars. Pics posted on registry. I've started a new business in 2009 and hope to install ported heads but that all depends.

Well let's see....
1. Find a job to pay for what I want to do.
2. a new set of tires, the michelins that came with my dymags are new but over 10yrs old, not sure I trust them.
3. find a job
4. lower the car, I have the lowering parts, want to do the suspension bushings at the same time.
5. find a job
6. install a chain tensioner upgrade kit. The chain rattle at start up bugs me.
7. find a job
8. GS brake calipers for the front, with the new wheels, you can see the ugly brakes.
9. did I mention find a job?
10. ohh yah... find a job!

Well this morning at 0945 it's 70 deg F and 60% humidity here in Abu Dhabi. Actually pretty nice... I'm flying 3-4 times per week in an awesome jet with OK to Good students. So all is well.

The only bad part is I don't have my Vette here and I wouldn't want to bring it with the way they drive here. I fear for my life every time I get on the road and I'm usually fearless... It's the guy you don't see who's going to get you...

Cheers,
