C8 in distress
On my way home from work today in my truck I was excited to see a LBR C8 pull in behind me in town. A couple was inside smiling and appearing to be having a good time.
We pull up to a stop light and they change lanes next to me. I'm eyeballing it in my mirrors when the light turns green.
I move forward and notice the Corvette is not moving. Then the DRL's go out. Still not moving. I am well through the light at this point. Then the DRL's seem to flash like he is trying to start it.
All lights go out again and then his hazards start flashing. I think about turning around to help and notice the people behind him are getting out to help. The Corvette never moves until I lose sight of it.
All the while I'm thinking my car will be built Friday, I hope it doesn't do that.
