Met one of your members (Jason aka Daddy) today and it looks like yall have a pretty good group of cars here. Hope you don't mind a C5 joining the group.

quick details about myself: got into cars in HS, bought my Corvette just before my senior year in collage, got into drag racing in the States (13.2 - not to bad for a mostly stock C5 on runflats), and got into road racing at Nurburgring this summer, which is where most of my mod money is going right now.

Eventually, i'll get around to putting a signature pick up, but this is my car

13.258 @ 109.42mph - Montgomery Motorsports Park - 8 Feb 04
17 Laps at Nurburgring
:twisted: 176mph top speed - A6, Germany
See my web page (slightly out of date)

I did a 5 card one time . It quite drained me for the day . Times kept getting consistently slower. but part of that may have been from the rain also.

Hey Lancer033,

I think I saw your car yesterday at the Ring, right?
