first get a kill switch or sum kind of anti theift device, it would suck to get towed from your drive way at night time (CROOKS!) this cars are expensive on the insurance....
LS1 <---love that one...yeeeAAH!!!

what do your friends have to do with your driving experience?

It doesn't matter what I say, you won't listen to me or any other board member, and I don't blame you, you are going to do what YOU want to do, not what we want. It doesn't matter how long you have been driving things, like combines, trucks, ect. unless you come from high performance cars, this is a car that can take YOU over instead of you taking it over. At 16 I would have killed myself with a car like this, having your friends in the racing on the street AND track is even more bad news for someone your age.
I stand strongly on how I feel for this, work your way up to it, but sence you are going to get one, don't do anything stupid in it ( showing off will almost ALWAYS = bad results )

And this is why I haven't gotten a street bike at 20... cause I'm a HP Junky and can't stand going slow... I know I'd kill myself in a heart beat. Like I said before.. Racing schools are truly your best friends. You can try Bondurant... they have some killer Z06's to go play with.

I guess I will take your guys advice to some extent; i guess i will attend a driving/racing school. When i said my friends are into the racing scene, I meant they could help with things to do and things not to do. They are not into showing off either and neither am I so that wont be a problem.
Felixllka I didn't mean to offend you or neglect your knowledge if that is what i did. Don't take it personally, I don't seem to listen to anybody except myself.
Thanks for the feedback.

Anyway, if you have any questions, feel free to ask, that's what we're here for, not to hate.
Seeya man, and good choice!
