It's nice to open her up once in a while. Just wish we the only ones on the road...

That road is even better on a bike, well over 170 mph is great...

Mark

PS. It was nice to meet you and Martha tonight.

That would've been better for sure. I always wonder if one of the other drivers in the right lane is going to do something stupid... It was good to meet you too. We'll have to talk more next time. :cheers:

She was impressed with how well the C5 was sticking to the road. :D

BTW Rick was at the gathering tonight. Has he been on the Dragon yet?

We have never taken that boy on the twisties! We are trying to get our 2004 calendar of events. We will have at least ONE event sponsored by us, with several "ad hoc" runs that turn up each year. We'll have to get him, and the rest of your gang over when we do it.

No 150 mph in the mountains though! :lol: Otherwise you'll be GLAD the C5 will "stick to the road"!

I was pretty impressed with it... if the road had been totally clear.... I would have encouraged Chris to SMOKE HIM!!! :thumbs:

Emerald wanted to go so much faster and could have easily without a problem!

Hmmmmmmmmmm..... let me see.... you had a 20 minute head start from the Shroom and we caught up with you (not counting the time you spent driving around lost)..... passed you more than once... just simply cruisin we almost lost you in the rear view mirror.... we didn't think you wanted to play so he backed off. Then right before your exit you kick it (it was sort of like being bi*tch slapped) We know your game now ... guerrilla driving tactics! :lolg: :lolg: :lolg: (impressive :thumbs: ) BTW.... the red and green sure did make a nice Christmas display on 485.

Re: PAGING C4 NEWBIE!!! (Strick)

I think my vette more than makes up for the stang. :yesnod: Besides I can't afford to mod 2 vettes and the stang is the next best looking American car in that price range IMO. :flag
