First Drive and Wave
I finally got to drive my Vette today (I live in Korea, and the car is in Florida) and I am stoked. I also got my first Vette wave from a guy in a C6. I was ear to ear smiles all day long. I also got the thin spokes wheels I bought a while ago put on, and, after searching the threads, managed to reprogram all the TPS. It was an incredible afternoon. I wish gas was cheaper though, as I am now driving around for the fun of it.
