Snoopy
Picked up my first American car earlier this year, even though my family has worked for Chevrolet for several generations. Very different driving experience from the usual front-wheel biased cars I've driven (Evos, Subies, Hondas). Still hesitant to push it on mountain roads as I have yet to understand how to approach corners. Usually on FWD, you drive the front end and just keep the rear behind it. Advice is greatly appreciated.
On to the car, Snoopy. Not sure if the guy I bought it from frequented here, but he's a prolific autoxer from Houston, and ran it in the One Lap last year. '14 1SS/RS 1LE with Recaros. He did the "ZL1" brakes (vette calipers) and Z28 springs/dampers. Quite the package. The car is now happily living in the Mojave desert. Fontana Pro Solo March 2018 - Didn't do well...

CONGRATS on the ride, and Welcome to our happy little corner of the net, and to Camaro5/6. There is a BIG fridge on the back porch with anything you can think of in it...help yourself...of course only take what you can LEGALLY have. Make yourself at home on one of the big fluffy couches, kick your shoes off, put your feet up on one of the tables, yes we are allowed to do that, mom's, wives', husbands, girlfriends and boyfriends here don't care....and take it easy.
oh...btw....every once in a while a food fight breaks out...so you may not want to wear nice clothes here. Welcome!!

Thanks for the welcome! So far plans are to "finish" the Z28 suspension parts kit, 19x11's, and learn how to drive. Other plans may involve a move it Italy for a few years and hopefully hit the ring while I'm there. Snoopy gets to go as well.
