Re: Lest we forget ....
"Even more disappointing, no acknowledgement of it in the Corvette or automotive press."
Maybe Hib H. can do an article on it for the 25th? That will also mark the beginning of the cross over to antique status. "The Antique Automobile Club of America defines an antique car as 25 years or older. ... a Modern Classic as a vehicle that is considered collectible regardless of age."

Re: Lest we forget ....
I enjoyed Hib's original article quite a lot. It would be interesting to have him do one that chronicles how the ZR-1 has survived in the subsequent years and frankly the community that continues to support it.

Re: Lest we forget ....
Excellent idea there, maybe someone can suggest it to Hib?
