Default Interesting picture..............

Was just going through some of my pics and I noticed this pic I took of my ZR1 in front of the Banff Springs Hotel.
Kind of looks like a ZR1 convertible. Must of just bent down enough to hide the roof.

Great illusion!

Three years ago, we flew to Calgary and rented a car. Stayed at your featured hotel. Went to Lake Louise as well.

Wow, to make that same trip in a Corvette! Lucky you.

Happened to me in 1981 on my '78 SA with new tires. Found it on 3 large rocks and 1 leaky bottle jack.

Great picture. We were there in 2011 with our RX 350. We only saw one C6 the entire trip.
