Finally had the time to join the site, I've known about it for awhile, but after talking to Charley Lillard for a half hour in Springfield, IL... I decided to sign up.
I've been on Ls1tech, CorvetteForum forever. I've been on Pro-Touring, and BangShift for a while now too. So why not add another one? Charley told me about his build thread and I really wanted to see it, so I googled it and found it here.
I also see a few members that I already recognize from the other forums, Jons69RagTop, Kwhizz, amongst others.
More about me..... My name is Craig, I live in Charlotte NC, and I've been down here for 3 years now. I finished up grad school at NIU in 2007, and moved down south after school. I work in IT for one of the banks down here, and so I'm on the internet wayyy too much, lol.
I have 2005 Chevy Corvette Z51. Its an LS2, t56 trans, I have a build thread for it on Pro-Touring.com/Bangshift... but I'm not sure a late model build thread would be welcomed here... :_paranoid
I've done a lot of crap to it, does anyone want to see it?
I have also done the Power Tour twice now. I long hauled in 2009, and 2010.
I participated in the RideTech autocross challenge in Birmingham, and yes I know I sucked it up. LOL.
I met Jon and his 69 LS3 swap, and Charley like I mentioned. I may have met others, so I kind of already feel welcome, haha.
2010 has been a crazy year, I bought my first house and moved in March, and I bought a 2008 G8 GT as my new DD in march as well. I got in a car accident 3 weeks after I moved in that totaled my '98 GP GTP! I had a kickass time on the PT last week, and will be back next year.
Now for some pics.
Heres a link to all my PT 2010 pics
