Default Won 1st Place Saturday with My 1994 Vert

I took my 1994 Competition Yellow Supercharged Convertible to an open show in OKC Saturday and took first place in my class. It was fun taking the C4 instead of my C7 for a change!

Another yellow car at the show grabbed my attention when I saw it...and even more so when I looked under the hood.

Fantastic looking C4. With all your mods do you have a good idea what the current HP is ?

How do you compare driving the '94 vert with other years you have owned and driven?

Really like how you put the speakers in the back-very nice!

I'm actually surprised that you don't win 1st place every time.

Your C4 is amazing! Detailed to perfection. It is certainly a "show winner".
