Default It's gone!!!

After almost 6yrs of ownership the vette left last Wednesday to make way for the wife a new car. Feels strange going into the basement and not seeing it! But, I've never really been a car guy anyway. I grew up on dirt bikes and when I hit 16 onto the street. I bought a Suzuki GSXR 1000 back in December that I will be doing track days with next year.

Anyway, this place has been GREAT!!! You can find the cure for whatever your problem might be! A lot of good information can be found here with good people to steer you in the right direction. Thanks forum, I may be back in a few years when I get the motorcycle thing out of my system, but at 50 now I sort of doubt it!

Enjoy riding. I miss it a lot. Had 4 bikes at one time about ten years ago. Love my Vette though. Be safe out there.
