Sweet. Looks like it was a lot of fun. Nice tail wind in the pictures, too. Haha.

Your car is pretty quick, Stkjock.

Yeah. It's a 2007 C6 ZO6. It's the dark blue with a black interior. Has the navigation package (I think it's the 2LZ package) and about 19,000 miles. A friend of mine has it and he is going to be getting the new ZR1 and told me he would give me a good price on the one he has now. The car is in perfect condition and he babies it.

Are there any common issues I should be aware of?
Needle bearings and the valve springs. Has it been modified at all? If not, then don't worry about a thing as you will have the remainder of the 5 year/100,000 mile powertrain warranty. In the meantime, join the CorvetteForum and read up in the C6 Z06 section.

What did the other guy run? I ran against him and his car was pretty quick.

No, it's bone stock. I wasn't sure that the powertrain warranty would transfer, but if it does, that is good news. I joined the CorvetteForum earlier today (2SINISTER), but had been reading up on some stuff already. Is the blow-by a big issue (oil in the intake) and is there a way to fix it yet (I saw some people discussing a catch can and a breather)? What about the stuff I've been hearing with the roof and a fix for it? Is that only the 06 models or the 07's as well?

Thanks for the help.
