Default Vettes on Rockies Aug 6th, auto-x

I got a " runner up ". Think I got 2nd or 3rd in my class, they only gave winner or 1st place to the top person.

2006 C6 coupe. My " raw " time was 36.02, who cares about the 2 tiny cones I nicked.

The only car I saw beat my time was a ZR1 that ran 35.98.

So I think I saved over $80K with my $40K 2006 coupe vs the $120K+ ZR1....and just .04 seconds.....it must be his wider tires.

Good times all around!

Nice job - and just think, driving home you could go topless while he could only dream of that.

Getting top time is worth the extra money.

Have fun.
