Default Some people just don't wave...

I was driving to work this morning and pulled up next to a yellow C3 at a red light. I tried to make eye contact, wave, and just be polite. The dude wouldn't even look at me and I was right along the side of him. He just kept his head straight as if he had a neck brace on or something. Oh well, not every vette lover is going to be outgoing and bubbly like you guys. Thanks for letting me rant. Mark

Ive seen the same thing over here, mostly with the C5's. Some DO buy a Vette for the status only.

I get that from time to time also. It doesn't really bother me though. I figure some folks just don't get it. Oh well, their loss.

I've always tryed to wave not matter what series I've driven.
There are a few c-5/c-6 owners who do not know that ''The Wave" is the correct thing to do.I've found a nice little toot on the horn to get their attention.Then I yell ,hey azz hole------ and sure enough they wave with one finger but it's a start.

Hey Vette Boy, that's pretty funny . Sometimes the one finger salute works and sometimes it doesn't.

Default Happy note...

I had a Vette that I pulled up on while it was at a light. My top was down and I must have looked like I dropped a cigar in my lap, cuz I was waving and bouncing like mad. Finally, I tooted my horn Honkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk, they looked, I waved and they waved back at me smiling.

I know that it wasn't me, I have told my kids that if we ever come along side or across from a red "Vette, we should all smile !!

For the most part I wave when I see another vette pass by, some people wave and others care less, I seem to have more responses with the c-4,c-5, and c-6 guys.

I was taking my son to his Kenpo class tonight around 7PM and waved to two people in a silver C6 south of Crawfordville around the River of Life Church. Was that you Rich Z? They waved back anyway.

No, wasn't us. The C6 hasn't been out of the car cover since Connie got back from Delaware last week. Been taking out the C5Z when we go for a ride.....
