Glad to say that after one new ignition cylinder and one new BCM, we're back in business.

I know a few guys were concerned that the car was at Lynn Chevrolet (I have to admit I was getting a little concerned too) but in the end, they came through for me. Car runs great and its back to normal

Thanks again to Shermon, Charlie and Alex for being there for us.

If you see a TR C5 cruising Manhattan tonight and the owner has a big smile on his face, odds are its me

Just watch those potholes!!! Glad your vette is back up and running. What are you doing tomorrow night? Alot of us will probably get out early from work, maybe we can do a run around the city and then get some dinner afterwards. We'll have to take it easy though since there will probably be alot of DUI cops around.

Hey, what's this? An impromptu cruise around the city after work? Does this mean I have to drive in tomorrow?

That would be too cool.

No, if we do it, it'll be later in the evening -- around 9 PM or so. I'll keep you posted.
