Nice Day For A Cruise (10 Pics)
 
One of the local corvette guys had a little get together yesterday so we decided to ride over with forum members TNBUSA and Jamie Slick. Here are a few pics of our cruise over. TNBUSA's vette was on its first major road trip. I am guessing it was a 40 mile trip one way with some stop and go, some interstate and some easy cruising. His car did not miss a beat. BTW, it takes about 2 seconds for it to hit the rev limiter in 2nd and lays two nice even black marks.

On with the pics.

Alright...that does it. I'm gonna go wash my Vette and go for a ride. :lol:

I'm glad you didn't run into any trouble with the law. In most states isn't it illegal to drive without a hood on the car if it was factory equipped?

Make sure to take us some pics since it is a little far for some of us to make the trip. :thumbs:

Curious what wheels and tires is the dark grey vette running, and does he have modifications to suspension. I really like his setup. From a grey vette guy, thanks for pics.:cheers:

I never know if Mike is online or not so I will try and answer some of this for him. The wheels are COYS. Seems like they are 18" all the way around. The suspension is VBP's adjustable rear spring setup and the front is VBP's monospring setup. He has adjust ability at every corner. Maybe Mike will see this thread and add some more detail to it.
