Bummer. We fly back to Fl Tuesday.
I had another surprise lined up for everyone for this ride. No not another car, but I think it still would have been a hit. I'll just have to keep everyone in suspense until the first warm weather ride next late spring, Still anxious to get the gray beast out on a road course. Been dying to get the lightweight Forgeline wheels with the Hoosier slicks back on the car. Joaquin and Frank are you listening?
Will miss all my Posse friends this winter.
Stay warm,
Keith

When will you withdraw that day?
My vette is still dirty since I planned for one more ride followed by the final wash!

Good question, me too but thinking this morning like Dave, to say it mildly, winter sucks. Take care all...

Ten-four here Keith. Looking forward to see the grey beast in the Spring. I know you will be warm this winter. Hopefully we too. I am putting THNDR today to bed for the winter. Joaquin

If any of you guys are on Facebook search for the "New England Corvettes" group. (Black Grand Sport is the cover photo). I recently started the group and there are a few fellow CT owners if you'd like to join.

Thanks, but I don't really see the point of that since your group is basically duplicating things we already have available here (plus more) for over 15 years.

Maybe some of your group can come join us sometime. No need to join the Posse, we are not a club. Just post up and join the fun.

Yes and no. Most of the guys in the group aren't on the corvette forum. I set it up so Corvette guys local to the New England area can post up events, parts for sale, etc. No need to join if you don't want to, just figured I'd throw it out there

this is my sons car, 2006 gto. seeing as i myself is mostly a spectator, sometimes an adviser and sometimes a helper, he has been doing this his self.
callies stroker kit to 402 cid
afr mongoose heads (ls3)
texas speed cam
kooks 1 7/8 headers w/cats
edelbrock ls3 cross-ram dual plenum intake manifold
dual throttle bodies
mccloud twin disk clutch & 14 lb flywheel
mishimoto aluminum radiator
thats the big bunnies. still has to do wiring for the controller to sync the throttle bodys
poly bushings
coil over shocks

he leaves for quantico va to start marine corps ocs on 05 jan so everything needs to be done before that date.
