Congratulations and welcome to the Forum

Looks like your Daily Driver in your avatar is fun as well

Post those pics

Congrats!

I hate to be the first one to tell you this, but that's not a cure. You are just in remission...

It comes back bigger and stronger than before, but it is no longer called Corvettitis, it's called Mod Fever...

Peace

Also known as Moditis, it's a strain of Fod Fever. Very contagious and has no known cure.

There are some helpful meds like SC made by ECC, APS made in the down under and the legendary LPE TT Made in the mid west. Try some of these and some of your symptoms will subside.
Welcome, Mark

There is no cure. We only have it under temporary control.

Congrats and welcome to the addiction .
