Thanks for your kind words. This is my 7th Vette and I like it a lot.

We didn't win in the C4 class but, did get a plaque as the "Sponsor's Choice" from Hy-Tech Auto Care. There were some seriouly nice C4s at the show but, I agree with Paul, I liked mine the best.




Rims are American Racing Torque Thrust IIs, 9.5 inch all around.
