I finally did it, retired, a new C7.R

[Roadster]

What can I say, just couldn't resist. Walked in and there it was, just sitting there, calling my name. I figured I'm retired now, spent a lot of years working, doesn't mean I have to stop buying Corvettes. So it is now mine, and I think the color is wild!!!

Cool, do you want to race?

[Roadster]

Cool, do you want to race?

Sure do.....need some practice first, then I'll be ready!!!:-D

No offense, but....

Looks like a dang ricer.

Wheels are too big, tires are too small.

And Orange. Ugh.

There's a reason why there was never a ZR1 made in Orange.

Just sayin'.

I love orange

Yes it is.....
Don't rush the time to get here, it took me 40 1/2 years, and it means I'm getting older.....:eek:
Thought the day wouldn't get here, but it did......:-D
Just enjoy everyday that you can, it really goes by fast.....

Get that thing out of the box already ! I want to see some mini smoke puffs coming off those tires !!!
I had a 1/10th scale C4 rc car back in the day . Loved that thing . I took a red barbie c4 corvette and cut it shorter to fit the 1/10th scale body and raced the hell out of it . Ken and Barbie never had more fun that that !!!
