Well today I'm going to another Chevy dealer to see if i can convince them to sponsor our Corvette Club since our last dealer quit because their space is limited for car shows !!!! Wayne

Last night I finally got around to lower Zee on her 4 stock bolts. She dropped 20 MM up front and 15 MM out back immediately. Hoping for more as I start using her in May and she settles down.

This adds to these small mods already done; remove warning labels, add Z51 labels, Z06 grille and front splitter, splash guards, painted plenum and covers.

Next up side skirts...

Yea, 64 mph would have been quite an accomplishment, back in the day. Hopefully you will go faster in the days ahead. Actually hated to see 500 miles show up on mine, something about a new car?

I think he means the suction cup handle on the roof at the top of this page.

First oil change is on the schedule for today. I'm hoping the dealer knows what they're doing.

I tried out the 0 to 60 timer. I read where people had trouble getting theirs to work. No problem with mine, worked as advertised. The timer allows you to race against yourself.
