Thanks for the welcome,

Sorry about the color thing, green here. I live in the country and don't see many Vettes. My second trip out I came up behind a white C4 and hooked up for about 20 miles of Hill Country runnin', heads were a turnin'. My third trip out had a C5 wave as I did. Very cool feeling.

btw, nice car.

If you ever feel like getting out of SA, come on up and drive our roads, love to have ya.... Rich

Yeah at first I was just searching for solutions to the little things I have wrong with mine. The more I see of people warning about the "opti", it's on my study list tonight.

Hello and welcome to the forum. Congratulations on the purchase of your '92. The first year of the LT1 . I'm a new Vette owner myself. I bought my Vette about three months ago ('93 Ruby red 6 speed coupe with 36,000 miles on it). You'll like it here and you'll find that it's very informative.

Let me know when you are coming next, meet you at Williams Creek Depot in Tarpley for dinner at Nalene's "Mac and Ernies". My treat.

We drive through Tarpley on 470 on our way to Utopia. You may know my brother in law. I'll send you a pm and exchange contact info.
