Allow me to reintroduction myself...
Issues accessing my account prohibited me from posting much, but have been following as a guest. Well, hopefully i'm back. I had the privilege of hanging w/some of you folks in Augusta nj back in the summer of '10 at the northern meet..great group of folks  I'm from north jersey, West Milford and hope to enjoy going to a few more meets this year.
Pics of the toys again, this shot is my favorite..from calendar pic of '11:
'91 r/s vert
'99 c5/6spd...kinda for sale but may keep it.
newest project picked up july 4th this year..been working on this the entire summer/fall...fresh paint...'92 true l98 t-top formula (1 of roughly 250 w/that combo built that year)..nickname 1/10th as its a tribute to the 25 firehawks built that year...may be for sale summer '12...i want a new 5th project
..still sourcing the single exit exhaust but needed something to pass inspection for time being.

Nice rides! West Milford's not too far from here (Only about 10-15 miles apart) but I don't think I've seen any of those cars around before. Hopefully will in the future, and I love the rear of that C5

Glad to see you are able to login again, still can't figure out for the life of me why it wasn't working for so long.

thanks guys...asking price of the c5 is 16.2k...but will probably keep it, at least till spring...more cars than garages so its in storage but when i drive it i can't grasp why i want to sell it and go into debt again. rear wing was a pain to make it fit right though. most likely the bird will go as having 2 third gens really plays on ones sanity.

Thanks for the warm replies guys. I will be attending more of your outings this year indefinately.
The rear wing is the rksport version if i didn't state that already...very difficult to put on and fit right.

I liked the way this wing looks from the side profile and how it hangs off the rear, but another one i was considering was the caravaggio spoiler but that requires one to drill into the quarters, but the setup is nice. Was also thinking of doing the wcc extended flare fender in the back but i heard they get drop shipped real rough and require a lot of work
here it is on this zo6

The Caravaggio is my favorite spoiler on the c5 z06. Two of my friends got the wcc flares and they didnt need too much work...

I'm probably misinterpreting your description on this car so I'll just ask if this a real Firehawk or a copy?

its a tribute...a fake. they only made 1 ttop '92 hawk #25. I am going to send out the glove compartment pouch to have #18 embroidered on it as this was a red '92 hawk rpo code b4u/1le that was never built.
I picked up the authentic slp dual exit single sided exhaust on tues...so amped to put it in.
..i got a line to the slp t-ram and even slp tri-y headers AND y pipes but its all a cost of $ as these parts are some bank, but besides the zf trans and other miscellaneous suspension components, it would complete the car.
Not sure if anyone saw this, but the original slp dealer video on the '92 hawk showing just how bada$$ the original car was in '92.
