NEXT CHALLENGE:

I like the sight of people wondering "what the heck are they doing?" when I'm trying to complete a challenge...makes it more fun and sometimes more RISKY!!!

with that being said, try to get a picture of your C5 IN GRIDLOCK TRAFFIC...long red light, while at a train crossing (a lot of cars waiting), just plain ol' backed up congestion, etc...note: not a Corvette Cruise or what not...on the spot "gotcha" picture

hop out, snap a quick picture of your C5 in the mix and leave everyone wondering "what the heck just happened?"

I'm up for the game but It's my busy season and I don't get the chance to drive my car that much Gridlock/longlines are kind of rare in my neck of the woods...
