40,000 posts and it feels like....
...there is about that many of you behind me right now. :cheers:
I nearly never do these "post" posts, but I just wanted to say thanks to those from C4 Tech that help in many many ways and are supporting me with the latest engine fiasco. This year has just been absolutely crazy. Two transmissions and now most likely two engines. While it may not of been a very successful (at all) racing season, it was a bigtime lesson. I learned a ton this year repairing this thing and can't wait to dig into it again if you can actually believe that.
Ok so that is about my quota for sapppy posts this month. Glad to get that outta the way. ;) So here's to stronger, faster, and holding up for more than 1300 miles! :D:lol:

Think about it this way, when you get done you will know this car inside and out. I remember a younger day myself on this forum where doing even a simple task like changing a water pump scared me. But if you hang around here enough, you realize that it is all just nuts and bolts, nothing really too terribly hard, maybe just hard to get too, and if you want to complain about that just look inside the hood of a new c5 or something and you will be glad your car is so easy to work on.

Yea...whats up with the car?

I'm sure that having a corvette that runs is a prerequisite to the former. ( j/k :D )
