Green grass is really hard to set on fire.
But,
Funny you would say this, Back in the late '70s, There was a fatality on the Elsinore, CA drop zone, and the sheriffs showed up to investigate (not sure what they were going to determine other than the poor guy didn't pull), but the cop car's cats were so hot they set the drop zone on fire!

As soon as they realized what was happening, they pulled the body into the other cop car and took off. The entire drop zone burnt to a crisp before they contained it.

Heck, I didn't care how long the grass was... I just wish mine looked like that. Most of our choices "down here" are zoysia, bermuda, centipede, and other warm-season grass. I wish we could grow that Kentucky bluegrass here.

Enjoy the new C7 !

I should have sprang for that kind of grass--when I had my yard done 8 years ago, I considered bermuda and zoysia. Pallet of zoysia was just about $100 more than bermuda. I was getting 20 pallets. Should have sprang for the extra bucks. I'm envious of your grass AND your 'Vette. LOL

How does the car perform lowered? This is something that I want to do to my car but I am better with hammers than wrenches. Is it easy to do?
