That is certainly nice of you GSers the let us sit in the main ballroom with you. A little kinky , but what would you expect from a GSer.



Card table? Heck I can deal with that. That is FINE dining.

I'd rather give the hot dog lady my hot dog than sit by the kitchen and feel all the hot air being blown from the GS table.

I think the stripes we're added to identify which car was coming up as they were all identical.
I thought wayback pulled his stripes so the car now looks like an ice cream bar with the chocolate eaten off...

still way’s car is very cool in my opinion, stripes or not

on on another note, since H1 seems to be in a real rare festive mood.......

this is is for Ruxxy, H1 and teebee as they saw an earlier picture of the next owner of my C6.......


Guess I’ll be hanging on to it for a while

although the newly announced rules by Ruxxy state I can post daily................

don't know or care if it is limited to one post.......................

spent part of today wanderin' around the Daytona area...............

checked out the speedway for a couple things I needed to get taken care of............ saw that they made a couple changes outdoors besides the newest additions................ added a fountain around the statues of the France's, rather than having them on a grassy knoll with flowers and shrubs like it previously was..............



seems they left the Earnhardt statue as it always was, and that is a good thing............



went down the road a bit to the beach area............. saw the remnants of Irma where sand was blown or moved up the street about a city block up from the beach area....................



after wanderin' and walkin' around............... decided I needed a rest...........

found this nice spot and plopped down for a while.............

Just an FYI for y'all.
Do not clean the throttle body on the car. Unplug it and remove it first. There was conflicting info on this when I searched the web.

I cleaned mine on the car, and opened the valve plate. This must have damaged it somehow.
Caused a high idle and surging. $435 later with a GM reconditioned throttle body and all is well.

Now still need to find my original problem of noise/vibration.
