Did You Know..........
Did you know there is a drain hole in the top rear corners of the trunk opening?
OKAY, did you also know that C5 lug nuts will fit right down them?
Don't ask me how I know!
Guess it wasn't meant to be the parts tray I imagined!

Actually, if you roll a few feet and stab the brake pedal and repeat a couple times they come right out. Probaly information most C5 forum members don't need.
Things like this only happen when your in a hurry to bolt on the drag radials and hit the 1/4 mi. track after a tough week! Go figure.

Then, lo and behold, your curious neighbors notice that your azz is still stuck to the car when night-time rolls around, and, they seem to have heard you swearing (several hearty WTF's and a lengthy list of turgid expletives) in every known language, recorded and otherwise, the whole friggin day! Frankly, I am pissing myself off again just remebering the whole dang ordeal!
