My youngest granddaughter is becoming a Corvette nut... lol. The last couple times she's visited she has wanted to ride in Vette no matter where we went. The last time she visited she said she wanted me to teach her how to race one when she got older. So, I figured why not start now & picked up a slot car set, as well as a couple Lego Corvette kits. She's visiting again this week & we've spent hours the last two days racing ... she has to be the Corvette every time. Even when I'm called away, it doesn't stop her. We did take a break long enough this morning to build the Lego Corvettes together. Love the quality time & fostering a new generation of Corvette enthusiasts

That's terrific. Spending a lot of quality time with my kids building my Vette too.

I saw the Lego set the other day at my local mall, but never saw the Corvette C7R slot cars before. Super cool!

That's awesome! My 7 year old spends a lot of time with me in the mancave and he never misses a M&G or car show!
