Happy Thanksgiving, friends!
And, please, get the turkey out of your Corvette so you can exercise your ride today (if weather allows).

Took the car the long way to the inlaws house today.

What a blast. There was some intentional loss of traction hehe.

The tires are getting old by age and have too much tread on them for their age.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone.

Intentional loss of traction?! Nooooo Waaayyy!

I would like to have taken ours to the family get-together but we were in charge of a couple of things that would really slosh around in case of any accidental loss of traction or accidental quick turns.

Happy belated Thanksgiving, y'all. Wish I could say I did something cool with my Vette, but I'm in NC helping the daughter recover from shoulder surgery. Hope to be home soon. Really glad we were here to have this holiday with them. Haven't been able to do that for 5 years now. Stay safe and healthy, y'all.
