Tracey....

You KNOW how excited I am that you're back in a Vette.

Does your helmet match close enough?

Tracy how awesome. Sure is nice seeing some of the original CF members returning. Can't wait to see what you do to your ZF1.

Congrats but I have to ask, why do people want to change the steering wheel? I have not gotten delivery of my C7 yet. Just wondering why this would be a good start.

When I saw John Caravaggio's steering wheels I thought it would really pop the interior w the 3LT. I changed the steering wheels in my past vettes C5's and C6's. Just like the custom look and feel. If I didnt get the 3LT I prob wouldnt change it.

Congratulations T!

Love, love, love that color combo. I'm looking very forward to watching that car change as you put your personal touches on it. Hoping we can get together in the upcoming weeks. Work schedules notwithstanding.

Enjoy and here's to miles of smiles.

Because some folks just love to mod their cars. Otherwise, there's really no "reason".

I've had every generation (and multiples of many) except the c1, and the only steering wheel I've ever changed was in my current c3. It needed to be changed to a smaller wheel after I got power steering.

Different strokes for different folks!

So you're good to go! With extras for your passenger.

I love picking someone up at the airport, opening the hatch to put their bags in and handing them a helmet.

Wow. Great looking Vette.
Many years ago when the Grass was Green and the Buffalo were many, I remember Tracy C6 taking delivery at the NCM of a C6 that did not have the exhaust, that Tracy had ordered.

I believe the dealers initials wer M.P. Correct me if I'm wrong.
