Default Deal's Gap Trip - Pic Heavy!

I usually make it to the area at least twice a year with my motorcycle but this is my first trip with the Corvette. Also, before the good photos begin, here are a few photos of the 100k milestone the car reached on my way there.

I have a ton of photos but the ones posted are my favorites.

Enjoy!!!




Now the others:

Very good. I have been going through it and trying to put together a small compilation.

Yeah I was driving in traffic through the I-40/I-275 junction in Knoxville so the 99,999 pic was a little "crooked"



Thanks for all the comments!

AKA "malfunction junction"
you have a very photogenic car, kudos for removing the hard-to-get-at crud that always seems to show up in pics of the instrument panel!

Here is about a 9 minute compilation I put together if you want to skip through it and check it out. I don't like to add music to this type of video but I was shooting with the non-sealed camera housing so it was just distorted with wind noise.
