How do you drive your vette?
 
I think everyone see there vette differently, some baby it an some drive it like they stole it. some drive it like its an egg that could crack at any time. an some drive it like the true performance car it is.
so how do u drive your vette?

My 06 vert is (the) uber sports touring machine and I drive it accordingly. I get a lot of use out of my V1....

Normally! Occasionally I push the envelope a little.

40-45 mph max to and from the gas station eyes peeled for deer and potholes. Otherwise as often and as early as I can go WOT lap after lap.

On the Street.. aggressive.. On the Track.. WOT, Like a MAD MAN. Threshold Brake and then DO IT AGAIN!!.. just trying to keep the sticky side down and the color the same as when I started...

I ENJOY my car!!.. Drive it when I can and when it's appropriate (I'll take long work-related road trips, and I won't drive into NYC with it). Always try and enjoy it though!...doesn't mean I'm always over the speed limit. just means I'm enjoying whether it's a spirited cruise, a track day, or a sight seeing tour!..

Just make sure you drive them as much as possible guys!!

Mostly I drive it forwards but every now and then I back up a little!!!

genair 11-05-2014 09:48 PM

On the street as fast and aggressive as is safe to do so - on the track as fast I can and still feel like I am mostly in control - but always try to stay within the limits of the car - can't afford to wad it up!!!!

RDG5500 11-05-2014 09:56 PM

Five over the limited.........unless every one is driving faster :D

lordofwar 11-05-2014 09:57 PM

I have the NPP option on my 2013 GS M6 -- I drive it just to hear it open up.. :woohoo:

carjo 11-05-2014 10:16 PM

Not slowly!

1rusty1 11-05-2014 10:20 PM

About 5 over. Same as my DD. If I drive too fast, people don't get a chance to admire it. :lol:

Suds 11-05-2014 10:27 PM

I drive it hard.
I bought an '08 garage queen with 15k miles January 2nd 2014, I have now added 7k road miles including 9 PDX days for over 800 track miles, recently added a cam with FBO and tune.

Rky Mtn C6 11-05-2014 10:48 PM

With the utmost respect. :yesnod: :auto:

berk4422 11-05-2014 11:25 PM

Drove it hard enough today to get pulled over for... well I'm really not sure why he pulled me over:willy:
Something about a circular on-ramp and driving sideways. He wasn't really sure of the violation so after we laughed, we were both on our way.:thumbs:

79inSD 11-05-2014 11:26 PM

Leave my house with the baffles closed, then when I get a few blocks a away I open them up. Drive her to work every few weeks. Also about the same with taking a drive around the island I get a lot of looks (especially with all the European tourists). I live in Key West so ever once an a while I will find a long bridge with no one in front of me! :rock:

I drive the speed limit but at least once a week I visit one of the local windy roads :thumbs:
