Default Hello from HOUSTON!

I just bought my first Corvette and I'm dying! It's a 2016 brand spanking new, but its about 24 hours away from me and the wait for it to be delivered is absolutely killing me! I come here for support from my new brethren. Please keep me in your thoughts during these difficult times.

Aye, McGee -
It will be here 'fore you know. Go easy on the gas starting out. Quite a few picked up a first speeding ticket on day one with these machines.

My shipper is dragging their feet. Just got a call that they are picking it up thursday and then 3-5 days travel time. Its already been mine for almost a week but they keep pushing the day back. :/

I won't say that I'm trying to get a ticket but getting one may be a very real possibility!
