Hate it when this happens
So I took the Vette over the weekend to meet up with some friends. One of my buddies has a C5 and was anxious to see a ZR1 up close so we went out to the parking lot. First thing I saw was what looked like an enormous bird crap on the back of the car. Then I saw it all over the back window and the roof. Then I got around the side of the car and here's what I saw:
SUCK! I have no idea what it was. It almost looked like someone threw a milkshake or something similar at the car. I couldn't find a cup or other implement anywhere close. I wasn't racing anybody or making a d!ck of myself on the way out there. The car was parked neatly in the middle of a parking spot, one away from the furthest in the lot. I never got into an altercation or really came into contact with anybody I didn't know all night. The car was clean but it's a 21 year old car just minding its own business. I wasn't being an a$$ taking up 3 spots or a handicapped spot or a fire lane or "flaunting" my Corvette. I could really care less about all that. I drive what I drive because I like driving it. Whether it's the ZR1, the Harley or whatever I leave the stereotypical attitude behind. Fortunately there was no permanent harm done. I left and went right to a car wash, where I got funny looks by the cops who saw me washing my car at 2:45AM. I'm sure they've seen worse. Anyhow... I'm just venting to a friendly crowd. Thanks for indulging. I hope that whatever (possibly very drunk) creep got his rocks off by trashing my car gets what's coming to him someday. Meantime, I'm never taking the car back out to Frisco again. What a dump of a town. (BTW: the spooge-obscured face in the photo is my buddy who fired up the ZR1 and couldn't believe how smoothly it runs. Or how it just sounds so much better than his LS1 with Corsa exhaust).
