You did it in 4 1/2 years. Not bad. Thats a lot of trans questions you've answered. In 5 years I'm only half way there.

Wow ! Congrats....

Let's break this down, shall we......let's say each of your posts took you an average of 4 minutes to respond :

10,000 X 4 = 40,000min
40,000min/60min*Hr = 666 Hours
666 hrs/24hrs*day = 27 day

27 days of continual typing spreading the gospel !!!!

IMPRESSIVE !!

I think if it was not for people like Pete, this forum would not be what it is today! This forum is full of knowledgeable people, who like to help fellow forum members carry on the close-knit Corvette Brother hood!!!

Even the words remind me of you (not the nutty ones)

Default Thanks for all you do

Congrats PK. Thanks for sharing your knowledge of our cars so openly and freely. You personally increased the fun factor for my Corvette experience with the trans, TC and gears. Next time your in AZ I'll buy you a drink and make a toast to the next 10,000. Don't forget the Nationals down here are Feb. 22-24.
