Default 700 HP - Thread Locked
Ok, someone explain the rules here. I know this is a C5 forum but it is also a CORVETTE forum. So, why was the thread locked? What rule was broken. I simply thought it would be interesting to some other members. If I broke some rule I'd like to know. If I simply upset some C5 purest...tough. Run flats are a common thread and they are not unique to the C5.

Again, if I broke a rule then I agree with the closure but I'd like to know what rule was broken.

It wasn't locked, it was moved to the appropriate section. Runflats are C5-related, the C7 is not.

But I appreciate the info.
