Default C4 Olympics

We should have them. Hopefully not in Canada but I can't think of a good location. A better one would probably be our homes

I can think of a few events.

-Getting into the car and starting it up.
-Getting out of the car.
-Fastest Targa top removal and stowage.
-Fastest Targa top replacement.
-Fastest opening of the gas lid.
-Fastest u-turn on a two lane street.

Any other events? Lol

count me out of the start up one, still dont know why it takes over a minute to start up cold. However if there is a fastest transmission leak I think I would contend, along with door panel and interior trim removal and re-installation

Great idea, but I don't think they shipped enough GOLD vettes to Canada

Let me tell ya, it was one heck of a party! Jeez, I didn't even lift the car cover for 2 weeks.

Your pressure is bleeding down when it sits and or the fuel pump is weak.
