Future cruises...
Well "Friend's of Ricky Raccoon",
Last night's cruise was awesome. What more can we say about a great night, great weather and even better friends to spend some time with. However in all of this we missed our ever popular "Cruise Director Par Excellence", Mo' aka 4GTABODT.
As he cannot participate Wednesday night (SHWIMBO too has trouble getting free that night), I would like to propose we move the Cruise Crew to Thursdays.
Thoughts anyone?

I am always open to a cruise with the exception of Monday nights however one "regular" nite is a cool thing....

The day of the week usually doesn't matter to me, its just whether I'm working or not, so any day is cool with me.
Last night was a great cruise, but it would have been better with Mo, so Thursdays are good for me most of the time.

Hey folks...much appreciated. But as I said the other night, if you move it to another night there's always the risk of loosing someone else from the pack. Thursdays are definately better but no offense taken if you decide to keep in on Wednesdays...besides, you have Stevie boy who's a natural on road courses

Cruises are open to anybody and everybody. That can keep up that is. 
I consider myself the noob of the group so far. Been on 2 cruises so far and looking forward to many more.

The "Cruise Crew" is open to all. Last week we had Stan in his Camaro and Eshel in his Porsche with us. As I have said many times, this crew does not have a chip on its shoulder. It's all about the cruise.
Oh yea, be sure to bring a radio (FRS) and tune it to Ch 5, SubCh 0.

Hey Andy, Like Pierre said, its open to anybody who likes driving. Very non pretentious group. We go on cruises on average at least once a week in the summer, some are very spontaneous, someone will call for a cruise and people who wanna go respond, its great.
By the way, I see you have American Racing headers on your C6, how do you like em?!? I am dying to get headers, leaning towards the LGs but trying to hear from all brands, LGs are kinda pricey and I would love to hear yours.
Be sure to check the forum often, but be warned, its addictive!!
by the way, there is a meet every saturday morning at the back of the Sherway Chapters in Etobicoke. It was started by the Porsche boys, but theres always some of us Vette guys there, and sometimes some exotics show up too. I am not sure if I will be there tommororow, cause I might have to work, but some of us will surely be there.

Thanks for the info, much appreciated.
In answer to your question, I absolutely love the American Racing headers. Hopefully we can meet up before you lay your cash down so you can hear the set up. But I have the Borla Stingers going to so it's pretty loud for some ears.
The headers came JetHot coated and although I have never manufactured steel products, the build quality appears top-shelf. I had them installed by my dealer (John Logan) and the tech said they fit like a glove, went in perfect.
I too came close to the LG's a they have a wicked good rep. When my research was all done I felt that the few hundred bucks I saved with the ARH was worth it. Bought them from Andy at A&A Corvettes in California as he had the best price and is a very nice guy to deal with. He will take the time to explain anything you have a question towards.
If you are in a rush and wish to have a peek at my pipes - LOL, just PM or call me and we can work somethin out.
By the way your mirals look soooo impressive. Would you consider painting a hoodliner for my car??

Hey Andy, thanks for the offer. And I already have BB Bullets on, so I'm not afraid of goin gloud.
Are the American racing 3 inches like the LGs?
As for the hoodliner, I haven't done one yet, I usually stay away from automotive painting. My preferred surface is walls. I am booked for about a month now, but I may practice on my own car as a guinea pig when I get a chance, I will just paint the Corvette Symbol in thats already there, but haven't looked into whats involved yet. I like to do things the right way the first time, especially for a customer.
I'll let you know how it goes.

The AR headers come in options of 1 3/4 or 1 7/8 primaries and 3 X 3 or 3 X 2 1/2 Catted or non catted X-Pipe systems. So both popular configurations are options.
I'll be getting back to you after you try your own hoodliner, hopefully you will be comfortable doing one.
Look forward to meeting you in person.
Whoo Hoooo!!!!
