I just want to say that , this is what a Corvette has always been about, friendship, passion, and a real desire to be a part of the greatest automotive community in the world.
The Corvette forum has been a vehicle, to extend this friendship and camaraderie. Every once in a while, we get a few distractors and even haters who come here to try to disrupt and disrespect the whole Idea of what the Corvette community represents. Everyone comes here for different reasons. Some come to learn, some come to teach, but in the end, everyone comes here to help, when they can. Ive seen some come here with little to no knowledge, only to see them here after 14 or 15 years, giving back all that have learned here, in a spirit of friendship and community commitment.

It makes me smile when I see and remember some newbie who came here a long time ago, who chose to bookmark, some of my help, word for word and to come here many years later to offer that help to a brand new member. A lot of information has been passed on to others here and that information remains here for all to share. We have to thank the Corvette forum and the vendors for keeping this forum a place to share our passion. Thanks to those who have participated in this thread.

When I started it, I thought it would be just a roll call of old timers, but it has become a lot more for me...Another opportunity to stroll down memory lane.. remembering the good old days, and see some friends who's names and Avatars, inspire thoughts of times past, when we were a half step faster, a bit healthier, had a little more Hair, a little less grey, but one thing that is better, is the friendships that we have embraced by coming together here in one place. Thanks to all
