Corvette Weekend
We spent the last two days on Corvette runs...one to Utah to see a private car collection from a super nice car buff and a run to and through Death Valley....starting location Las Vegas. Here are a couple of pictures from Sat and Sun. 1967 Corvette 427 tri-power

OP, thanks for the pics! Death Valley is a great trip. The drives are scenic and fun.
To those who haven't done it, DO IT! But, make sure your tank is always topped-off! More important if you are driving a Z06/ZR1. Did it some years ago. One friend had a new at the time Ron Fellows Z06. He filled up when the rest of us did, and didn't when we didn't. He should have. He almost paid for it. We limped along at 40 MPH, 60+ miles, just to get him to a gas station. He pumped in 17.3 gallons. Close call! There is a reason they call it Death Valley!
