Wish I'd had a copy of the "10 commandments for Corvettes" with me...Would have stuck one on the windshield...
I almost wanted to tell it "Sorry" as we drove by...

MY1STPEWTER: How's the weather in Paducah? I'm driving there on Christmas Day from Virginia to see my dad (not taking the Vette, of course!)

10 commandments
I was curious, so I did a search and found them.....
From a fellow Vette owner at another site.....words to live by
The Corvette Commandments:
1- Thou shalt not fail to wave to a fellow Corvette owner.
2- Thou shalt not pass a fellow Corvette owner in distress without offering aid.
3- Thou shalt not feed thy Corvette budget-grade fuel.
4- Thou shalt treat thy Vette with respect; great power, great responsibility.
5- Thou shalt keep thy Corvette clean and waxed at all times, yet thou shalt not bring thy Corvette to an automatic car wash.
6- Thou shalt park thy Corvette in such a manner as to protect her tender fenders.
7- Thou shalt blow out carbon with a high-speed run as required.
8- Thou shalt not cruise on an unpaved road.
9- Neither friend, nor foe, nor even thy spouse may drive thy Corvette without first showing proper reverence.
10- Each Vette is an individual work of art; judge not lest ye might be judged.
