Default Im taking a vacation.

Im going to take a vacation from this forum for a while. Im sorry, but this C4 section isnt any fun for me any more. Im tired of the bashing, and down talking about corvettes. And the threads being run into the ground.

I may be back, or maybe not. There are lots of good people here I will miss. Especially the ones on my friends list.

It's good to take a break ... come back when you start to miss us
I have to admit, if I spent as much time working on my car as I do on the forum I would have the fastest Vette on the planet.

Mike,

I certainly can understand. It's hard to figure out. The C4 is a great part of the Corvette history. Fact! The 1984 Corvette, which is constantly bashed here, was the beginning of the Corvette as a world class sports car. Today's amazing Corvette is a result of the evolution of all the previous years.

If one needs to bash Corvettes, why not just get lost. I sometimes wonder if these folks even own a Corvette. If they were Corvette enthusiasts, they would not behave in this manner.

Take care friend and enjoy your Corvette. I hope you return soon. Your feedback here has been appreciated by me and many others.

Best of luck.
