I like the response you get from this forum....QUICK! I have other interests and hobbies which also have informational forums......you can post, but sometimes you need a calendar to wait for a response.

I like this forum because I like talking about Corvettes than working on one
Joke apart.. This is sort of a live Corvette encyclopedia. Too much great info and a lot of good knowledgeable people.

lots of reasons. great people who know these cars inside out. even the ones like me who dont share the same interest and feel like personal friends. 98% of my time on comp. is ebay and this site. my wife was busting me about it yesterday. i said i could go to the corner bar and hang out if she wanted.

Because the other Corvette forums I visited were either juvenile or so retentive they were a complete turn off. Ask a polite, reasonably spelled, grammatically OK question here and get honest, considered responses most of the time. Nicer than being called a hosebag newbie dork or some such!

1) Good honest opinions from folks always willing to help each other.
2) Priceless information.
3) Passion for Corvettes.

Do you really have to ask? It's a world of information at your finger tip.

The amount of great knowledge on here has taught me a lot and I enjoy reading the opinions (both good and bad) and it feels like an extension of my corvette family. If you post an intelligent question, you will be answered quickly and most of the time it is good advice.... if not, there is some great ball busting.



edit... and everytime I log on, it gives me incentive to finish my 78.
