Welcome aboard.
Good luck on your move to the FRC. Hope you find one that you like... and have fun modding it.
While there isn't that much difference between the FRC and the Z06 if you start modding things like engine and suspension, there are some weight savings on the Z06 that will be too costly for you to realistically replicate on a FRC, so I wouldn't totally discount the early Z06s. Its been too long for me to remember exactly what the differences are, but maybe someone else here may know. I seem to remember a Z06 being 50-100lbs lighter than a FRC. You can regain some of that with mods such as titanium exhaust, etc, but that offsets the price differences between the two. If you keep your eye open, you may find a Z06 at a good price.
