I beat mine like a rental. Drive in the rain, and on dirt roads.. Quite honestly it's supposed to be enjoyed. Whether you want to wax it and look at it in the garage, race it or somewhere in between, it's all good. I do like that someone folks save them for me to beat later though..

You must say three "Hail Corvettes", three "All Corvettes are Red" and do two burnouts!

You drive your Vette in the rain?
Don't you know it will melt? See example below.
