    Drag Strip

    1) My buddy has an '06 Z51 automatic convertible. We went to the track on Friday and due to rain, he only had two runs (street tires). First run way 14.0 and the second run was 13.8. We don't know whether they are good numbers or not. Anyone knows what a good ET would be for that car? 2) My...

    Paint Color Name

    I have a Monterey Red Vert. When I went to a paint store to have them mix paint for the Vette, I gave them code 80U which shows in the car's specs. However, the color listed for that code is Jewel Red (which is Monterey Red). Anyone knows why there are two names for the same color?

    No Pun Intended

    A jumper cable walks into a bar. The bartender says, 'I'll serve you, but don't start anything.' A dyslexic man walks into a bra. A man walks into a bar with a slab of asphalt under his arm and says: 'A beer please, and one for the road.' Two cannibals are eating a clown. One says to the...

    Glue on body

    Some time ago I installed Corvette lettering on the bumper of the Vette. One day, while drying the car, the towel got caught on the end of the letters and picked them up. I tried different methods to glue them back on with no satisfaction. I snipped the end off so it did not look so bad until I...

    Engine Dress-up

    Some of you might remember that I had the hood underliner painted a few months ago. Well, I made a couple of more changes. Installed color matching fuel rail covers, battery cover and fuse box cover. I hope to find a "Jake" emblem small enough to put on the fuse cover. I know that engine...

    Slow News Day

    I was watching the news this morning and while the reporter was reading the news, they had three boxes on the right frame of the TV with other "Hot" stories. One was about Obama, another about McCain and the last read "Sharks Spotted". They had a helicopter circling the ocean at Martha's...

    GM and Yahoo

    When I bought my Vette, I created an account at MyGMLink.com. It keeps track of any service performed to the car as well as a few other things. Today I logged on and the site linked me to open a Yahoo account. It looks like they are working with GM and will manage the database. My issue is that...

    Quad Cruiser Exhaust

    My buddy purchased a set of Quad Cruiser Exhaust from Mid-America and we just installed them today. It took us about 1 1/2 hrs on a lift. He has an automatic and we dropped the passenger side heat shield to give us more room for that side muffler. Wow!! Great sound at a very reasonable price...

    Tribute to WWII and Koren War Veterans

    Bierstock, 58, and John Melnick, 54, of Pompano Beach - a member of Bierstock's band, "Dr. Sam and the Managed Care Band" - have written a song inspired by an old soldier. The mournful "Before You Go" does more than salute those who fought in WWII. It encourages people to go out of their way to...

    John Adams - HBO Series

    Did anyone watch this mini-series on HBO? It just ended this past Sunday and I found it superb. The last episode was a little emotional and I found a couple of tears in my eyes. All in all I thought that it was a great series. I did not realize that Adams and Jefferson had a feud going for a...

    Author Unknown

    Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather skidding sideways, chocolate in one hand and wine in the other, body thoroughly used up, screaming "Whoo-Hoo!! What a ride!" :crazy03::crazy03::crazy03:

    A 66 year-old man in South Kitsap, Washington, became so frustrated trying to loosen a lug nut that he blasted it with a 12-gauge shotgun. The man reportedly was just an arm's length from the wheel when he fired and peppered himself with pellets, pieces of the wheel and other debris. His...

    At a Medal of Honor Ceremony honoring Navy SEAL Michael A. Monsoor, President Bush remarked: "His teammates liked to laugh about the way his shiny Corvette would leave everybody in the dust," Bush said. "But deep down, they always knew Mike would never leave anybody behind when it counted."...

    Vette Emblem

    My wife bought me a Vette emblem to place on the hood pad of my '06 from Ecklers ($74). The instructions were very clear that if the emblem didn't stick, it would be my fault. I followed the instructions to the letter. Cleaned the area with alcohol, waited for it to dry for more than two hours...
