Lots of things are possible in the small space of a corvette interior.

I'll be in KC in October, maybe I'll catch a glimpse of VG on the road while out there. I'll keep my camera handy.

Get a room - it's cheaper (you might throw something out). You won't break anytrhing on your car. I have ten other reasons also but probably don't want to publish them here! :o

Just be careful the vehicle is not in motion. I had a girl try to jump into my lap while i was driving around 40 mph, one of her legs nocked the car into reverse. If that happens you will now imediately! The tires locked up then the engine cut out.

Dont make my same mistake. Not a lot of room for maneuverability in these cars.
