Well, the Toronto Pack doesn't really have an Executive Committee, or a CEO, to make arbitrary decisions about this sort of thing. As mere member of the Pack, though, my vote would be "all C's welcome". In my view, Corvettes are :cool: and the more of them there are in one place, the better.

As long as you're prepared to acknowledge the timeless aesthetic superiority of C3 .... :lol: (kidding!)

Just keep an eye peeled for similar posts...and really, we're not a club, just a few guys that get together occassionally to cruise, etc. I'm the newest guy to this point and all of them I've met so far are great guys. Nice cars too..


BTW, Mark isn't kidding ;)

Basically there is no real problem it runs cool if I am moving as soon as I stop it just keeps climbing, it was getting over 200 and I was getting nervous sitting there thinking I might be stuck with no where to go so I bailed. :D

I'm finally back on the forum after two weeks up north!! I missed you guys!! Wayne, at the dyno session, I noticed you aren't running a vacuum advance. I've seen some posts on this and I concluded that running a vacuum advance is important to prevent overheating. Might want to check into that?? :cheers:
