    Welcome back Ryan! Long time, what 'other' rides kept you busy? I thought you had just thrown in the towel to be a Dad.

    That's awesome Navin. I've been following your mods here. Can't wait to see its newest iteration!

    Well you never know lol

    But, to me, this is what I've been after all along. I'm not an ACR guy so there isn't much else to upgrade to after a Gen IV coupe. Gen Vs are still a long ways from my garage..

    Well I bought a Grand Sport Vette on eBay that I practically stole. I kept it for 2 months and made quite a bit on it. Sold that for a Camaro ZL1 to ride the whole family around. I modded it up to 700hp and then started freaking out with the terrible depreciation lol. So here I am again!

    I always missed the Viper, and even though I had 3 Vipers in 5 years, that was the longest stretch with the "same" car I've ever had. I really loved the Camaro as it fit my family needs perfectly. But something just didn't feel quite right..

    Can't wait too see it and considering I live in Knoxville it would be foolish to miss out on the TOD run...though I get to do it pretty often, it's much cooler with 50+ vipers in convoy.

    Ryan, with all the money you spent on the ZL1 (great cars, by the way), you could have gotten into a Gen 5? Anyway, can't wait to see the car at some point, as I sometimes get together with the DE/MD guys. I did meet you a couple years back at lunch.

    Pretty cool story, did you have any pic of the Camaro? (Anything you touch seems to turn out pretty good) and is the new car going to have some "Green"in it.

    what wheels on thae vette bro? look pretty cool. I wanted a deep concave on the viper and came to realize I would only get flat fronts and barely a concave on the rears. so I went with lips.

    They are 360 Forged Concave GT wheels. They are concave with a stepped lip. Loved the look

    They look too far off what you had on the black Viper if I remember right?

    I know...and I still love that red hardtop!

    Didn't realize that Latamud's car was your 03 Ryan.

    I still have my 03, 31,300 miles on it now. Interested to see your new ride. By the way, that ZL1 was special. A local friend here has one, and they are nice cars. I bet you had a hard time letting it go.
