For all those playing and keeping score, you are still a n00b if you ask me;


what my favorite color is on a Vette

what my favorite Vette tune is

what I think about sawblades

what axle do I have in my Vette

what's the fastest I've gone in my Vette

should I put a turbo in my early C4 or supercharge it

how rare your Vette is


Just a partial list, I'm sure others will add to it...............

Thanks j-vette! Wish it had a little more time to snowball also, but it's the mods playground.

My guess is your OT post was a just a little too over the top or troll-like, which is why it got locked so quickly.

Didn't know there was such a thing in OT. Seen a lot of crazy posts there that continue to survive.
