I love ALL the pics in this thread! Fantastic.
The one in post #2 w/the mountains in the back ground is fabulous. That is so gorgeous country.

I really liked seeing your CE pictures.
With a different license plate they would look like my CE so I enjoyed looking at them a lot.
I haven't taken my C4 to the Dragon, but I did in my C5 a couple years ago. It was fun. I drove it 5 times in 2 days. I made the mistake of not cleaning my car and it had a 1000 miles of dirt and bugs on it so my pictures did not come out like I would want to save them. Yours looks great as do the other cars that posted in this thread.

Thanks! This is the first silver colored car I have owned. My wife always thinks silver is boring and 'everyone' has a silver car. She feels different about this collector's edition. The photos came out so good too! The photographers do such an excellent job, and you just can't beat the price. I always think of the amusement parks or attractions that take your picture and charge $20+ just for starters. Here we get action photos for $6 -$7 a pop.

For those that don't know, Al's ZR-1 was sitting in the Hotel parking lot when the idot gal, with a car full of passengers, and admitted to being distracted while (texting?) on cell phone, smashed into the right, rear quarter of the beautiful black Z. There was damage to the quarter and the rear bumper (both unique to the ZR-1 - read: parts particularly unique to the Z), as well as some suspension links.
Very glad to hear the car is back on the road. Don't know if he will be enticed to give MR5 a shot, but we hope so. (And, BTW, I hope some of the rest of you Corvette enthusiasts can make it too!!!)

Yes! As a matter of fact, just this week I saw (a post?) from him, say that he finally got his car repaired and is back in action!!

Yes that is good news. The irony of it was Al parked way out away from everybody so nobody would hit his car, about where I was standing to take this pic. Girl knocked it halfway out of it's parking spot.

The wife and I just returned back to Wisconsin after our 2600 mile adventure to North Carolina in our 90 coupe. Drove the Blue Ridge Parkway and the Dragon's Tail. Weather was in the upper 80's with clear blue skies. Very light traffic on the Dragon. The best road was N.C. hyway 215 that runs north from N.C. 48 to the Blue Ridge. Color above 4,000 feet was brilliant yellows, golds and oranges.
