My first Vette too Supercool.

BTW you need to change your name to Supercool8 unless you have a DOD option that we don't know about.

Best way to get informed is to:

#1 Read -



Then #2 - look in FAQ of the FORUM

#3 - go to Cruise In, it's a Religious Experience

Nice Congrats. You need to grow eyes in the back of your head for all the leos out there. Most like harrassing Corvettes. Especially if you live in suburbia.

I see a V1 in your future. Now you can literally put the Mustang behind you.
