Hi guys,
Been around for a while and thought it was time I come in to the foal formally.
Great site, I have already used a lot of good information from here.

We found a 2000 FRC at a local dealers a few months ago, after being surprised in our looking over all the models, that such a straight forward Corvette existed.

This one has a 6 speed manual and is a lot of fun out in the country if not so much so around town. I don't use it for running errands anyway, so that doesn't matter.

We have done two runs over the "hills" to the coast and down route one here and it is truly a terror between the turns and through them also.

Different subject: Don't care much for the tail lights on the new Corvette so I did a little quick casual redesign with Photoshop this afternoon. See attached photo (if I can get it through.) Thought perhaps someone might enjoy it.

THE NONRULES AND WHYLAWS

SECTION ONE – THE NONRULES



1. There are no Rules!
2. See nonrule number 1.


SECTION TWO – THE WHYLAWS

1. The Whylaws are not needed but since they are required for some unknown reason we have agreed to not have the following:
a. No one shall be excluded from nonmembership unless they don’t own a Corvette, know someone who does, never wants to own one, or thinks that Corvettes suck.
b. Dues will not be accepted at any time! If you feel the need to buy something, buy a beer, lunch, dinner or a very expensive mod for another nonmember.
c. Compliments on a nonmember’s Vette are encouraged but not required unless you are trying to trick another nonmember into complying with 1.b. above. Then it might be a good idea.
d. Trash talking on the Corvette Forum, in person, or on any other semi-acceptable form of communication is very much encouraged, but, not required.
e. Modding of any Corvette is permissible at any time for any reason even if no one understands or agrees with the mod in nonquestion.
f. No votes are considered binding for any reason whatsoever for whatever the vote was taken for because,,,,,no votes can be counted because no voting will be allowed or recognized. See Nonrule number 1.
g. Aspirin is the recommended, but non required drug to ingest before reading further.
h. Non Club Club of Oklahoma nonevents are non sanctioned by anybody, any Body unless the nonmembers nonagree that it is cool to show up or not.
i. A fully nonsanctioned Non Club Club of Oklahoma event is defined as anytime one or more nonmembers do anything while doing that function within 10,000 miles of their Corvette or if the nonmember thinks about their Corvette within three and one half weeks of performing the aforementioned thing they were doing.
j. Any nonmember can be identified as driving or parking any Vette as either really clean or really filthy or anywhere in between at anytime unless it is real dark. Then, and only then, unless nobody cares or notices, can such identification and description be a matter of discussion or not.
k. Photographic evidence of Mods are encouraged but not required unless a nonmember throws the smiley face with the BS flag, either in person or on the Corvette Forum or other acceptable communication forum. In case of the noncompliance with this whylaw, nothing will be done, maybe.
l. Street Racing is Officially discouraged and will not be tolerated,,,,but will be graded.
m. At NO Time shall any nonmember not belong to the Non Club Club of Oklahoma unless at that time the nonmember secretly needs to not belong in order to save his or her life, or, get laid.
n. Ricer owners SUCK! Mostly.
o. Nonsanctioned Nonevents don’t count unless any nonmember wants them to, or not.
p. Never, and WE mean NEVER does any nonmember EVER,,,,,,, NEVERMIND!
q. Damn, we are only on q. Well we don’t like q. Or do we?
r. All attempts to increase RWHP or RWTQ are encouraged. But non required,,,,yeah right.
s. Pictures of Non Club Club of Oklahoma NonEvents are Nonsanctioned and cannot be sold, reproduced, copied, edited or given away without the expressed written consent of the pictured nonmember’s car or nonmember. Or not.
t. Really BAD pics can cause death or bodily harm to be inflicted on the photographer by a nonvote of the entire nonmembership.
u. Really tacky, drunken, sober, ugly or any where in between behavior will be noticed.
v. All nonmembers are nonrequired to have on their person or in their console enough quarters to wash their Vette just in case it needs it! Or not.
w. Nonmembers can never renounce their nonmembership unless they don’t have a Vette anymore, pledge to never own a Vette ever again, buy a RICER or decide to purchase a Ugo. In which case a special Non Club Club of Oklahoma nonmeeting will not be called to not decide whether or not the nonmember should lose his or her nonmembership status.
x. In no way should nonmembership in the Non Club Club of Oklahoma be considered as an accomplishment of any kind.
y. In no way should nonmembership in the Non Club Club of Oklahoma be considered as anything to be ashamed of. Unless, (see m. above) then it’s cool, or maybe just excusable.
z. Finally. See Below*

• Nothing on the previous pages means anything at all,,,,,,,,,,unless you want it to, and in that case don’t tell anyone because they won’t or shouldn’t care.

 

Welcome aboard Dario. Keep your hands inside the ride at all times!!

 

Welcome to the forum and congrats on your C5. But in all honesty I have to say your re-design for the C7 taillights sucks.

 

Congrats and welcome to the fold!

C7 tails ain't all that bad!

Thanks,Matt

 

Nice car, but your design sux, welcome to the land of honest critics.

 

Well we are looking forward to enjoying the company here. I'll have to look up the NorCal group(s), although I am more of a "take it out and blow the carbon out" kind of guy than a group cruiser.

Had in mind getting in some track training at some point. Have to see if I can manage that.

As for the tail lights I think the stock design is way over done. I guess variations in taste is one of the things that makes life interesting.

 

Welcome. Warning;
Driving C5 Corvette, will give you certain superpowers. Use them; mostly, for good...

Many of us liked the C7 from the beginning, even the tail end. That; doesn't make us love our C5's any less though.

I see no reason one can't appreciate all the generations of Corvette. And it's okay to have a favorite, without denigrating the others.

Enjoy your C5. Lot's of good guys here, to help you with mods, or issues if you have any from time to time.
Don

 

Welcome to the forum! You're actually really close to me. I have family in Los Banos and the guy that does all my window tinting is there, Dark Reflections. What color is your FRC maybe I'll see you around

 

Congrats on the C5 and welcome to the forum!

 

I'm a FRC fan, welcome aboard

 

 

If we wanted to just cruise, we'd be driving Buicks

 

Don - Still love those Ruff's!!
