Default Race car or date car?
What do you consider your vette.
Mine is strictly a date car.

Don't you need a back seat for it to be a date car?

In my dating days a bench seat was a great convenience.

Well, I don't race mine and unless it's a date with my wife, it rules that one out too. To me, it's a car, albeit a very nice one.
