The Corvette Club of Hawaii recently did the Veterans Parade in Wahiawa where all 6 generations of Vettes were present along with a Z06.

Kona,

Very nice and that is a large gathering. Hope the SuperFerry gets going and eventually runs to the Big Island, would love to bring our club over and do a drive and visa versa.

To all Oahu based Vettes, I am doing a drive this Sunday with another C6 owner who I found in the C6 forums also coming with us will be an 07 Porsche 911 Twin Turbo, looking at going around the island starting at the Mililani Town Center, Tesoro Station at 0900 hours. Anyone wanting to have some fun let me know.

SuperSpeed,

I like the club as they give back to the community, we will be doing the Toys for Tots at the end of this month.

Kona,

HawaiiC6...sounds like a plan to me. Island wide there are a lot of Vettes here. We get together every so often with runs and then we have a few of us that like to go a tad faster than the rest so we have a few runs ourselves

The SuperFerry is the best idea this State has had in a very long time.

KV,

You sound like me, I do what I call a fun run, did a test of my trans recently trying to replicate a malfunction and got it up to 140 in 4th gear. Oh and there was no malfunction.

I like those fun runs you speak of just watch out for the HPD 30 over and they can take your license, take your beautiful Vette and throw you in jail. How the hell did that pass I have no idea. I am 30 over just going to work but the radar detector has saved my akole more times. Stay safe

Don't invest in a radar detector as Honolulu only uses lasers. And just for those that need to know I have a little gold badge that helps me.
