Say hi to Jami and and I am sure she will agree that these past couple of days have been great for the vert!!!!

...Im driving, quite usually, slow....so dont throw any dirt on me as you fly by...

I decided to drive StuzVette anyway...

Thread Jack! - FWIW Norris is now called Next Level Performance. I guess Mike took on a partner, Geoff. Had them check out my car last week before I purchased it, been back a few times working out the new/used car kinks. Awesome service from all the guys at Next Level. Two thumbs up

Hail Storm
Hey guys,
I hope I can still make it Saturday. It's been awhile since I've seen everyone. But I may have to meet with insurance people. Today right after I got home from work there was a massive hail storm in avalon park (waterford lakes area). Beat the hell out of my corvette, I couldnt go outside I would have been knocked out. It cracked my windshield and put some nice paint chips in my roof. Luckily the fiberglass didnt obtain any 'dents' from the hail. So the next step is insurance and where to get it repaired.
Stu, Chris, and Brian who would you recommend around orlando for paint and windshield. Chris I know you got a nice ding in your glass in ocala national forest, did you ever get that repaired.
Thanks in advance, your sad buddy,
Max

Don't worry, since I will get there late, I'm not judging...but you can still give me the cash!
Five of the Cape Kennedy Corvette Club menbers will be supporting the City of Cocoa event until about 10:30...then we will be heading north to Ecklers. The beautimus white one will be in that group. Now you know who I am!
See 'ya Saturday!
