Exactly. My brother called, while I was out for a drive. When he asked me where I was my reply was, "I don't know".
Twisty roads with no traffic are hard to find in Illinois.

Corvettes make driving fun, and part of that fun is getting "lost" finding new roads.

Im actually hoping that somebody, perhaps more motivated than I am, sees this and goes into production. Then I can just buy one...😳
