Thanks Tom, I'd love to travel with someone. This is first 'Vette. I'm really excited and can't wait to get involved. Someone in Pittsburg? mentioned somewhere about hooking up with someone to head out. I forget which thread I read that on. BTW, I'm Steve

Hi Steve! Yes, for sure I will keep you informed of my plans for driving down to BG this May. Right now I know I'm going! I'd be glad to hook up with you at some point and convoy down to BG together.
I figure that since you're in NH I will look up mapquest and see what route makes sense for you and then plot an intercept. We have time to sort this out. It's early days yet. My perspective passenger has not yet made a decision and I figure I'll know more when he decides between ride with me or use his own Z.....yes it's the old razor of "do I drive it and pile up the miles? Or do I leave it in the garage?" IDK what to say to that as I just used mine yesterday to make a very unpleasant situation more pleasant. She sure sounded sweet in the canyons on the West Side Highway down by the Mercantile Exchange and thru the Brooklyn Battery Tunnel! ![]() ![]() ![]() Tom

Took mine out in the cold Yesterday to a family event. It was 15 degrees when I got home. I don't think she'll be out to many more times this year.

Tom Tom,
I was thinking I'd drive my daily driver down to you. But if that "intercept" goes thru Mystic maybe we could hook up that way? Steve, oh by the way, I'm Doug, nice to meet you! Welcome aboard! It was 13 here this morning, must be a beach day in NH? Corvettes make a lot of new noises when it's really cold outside... Doug |

Good to meet you Doug. She was groaning a little yesterday, but didn't mind the cold. Still goes to 100 in the blink of an eye. I'll be looking for opionions on headers this spring. I thought SW was a slam dunk, but OBX is looking better.

Well Kevin, looks like we're heading to BG in May. If you're looking for a ride, my passenger seat will have my wife in it, and there's not much room in the back. If you're looking to joint the convoy, as far as I'm concerend, the more the merrier.

I was thinking about you driving down here and that could work as I can store your ride in the garage as we'll be in the vette and leave my car at my work/home location for the duration. You'd have to drive over to the vette's garage though? Eh, we'll figure it out I have faith in that! Wehere there's a will, there is a way! ![]() ![]() Tom

Tom Tom,
That could work. We better get goin', we've only got 4 and half months to figure this out... Maybe we can talk Lou into joining us? He needs a break, he works too hard! In my case, like Bob said, "I used to care, but things have changed"... Hope you had a great Xmas and wishing you a prosperous New Year! I'm a little concerned about 12/21/12 though... if they're right, it's gonna really hurt ZR-1 values... Doug ![]() |
