Default Looks like I'm payin'

You probably remember my little incident being an observer of a road rage incident that damaged my car. The insurance adjuster is coming to look at my car tomorrow and I think I'll be paying a deductable . . . YAY!

One plane ticket to Las Vegas - $250
Front row seat to a mediocre boxing bout - $200

Having to pay $500 to watch two "my wee-wee is bigger than yours" guys beat the crap out of each other because one guy cut the other guy off ultimately ending in your new Corvette being damaged - PRICELESS

Not really, but that was good placement.

I think I got you beat..... How about walking outside through your garage and finding some idiot stealing from you....
Well after all was said and done he had a broken jaw and 25 stiches in his head.
I got sued and LOST for his medical bills.

As much as it felt good to beat the living crap out of him, my wallet regrets it!!

should of shot him could of claimed the "Make my day" LAW oh and dont forget to plant a knife in his hand while he is down.

No but i had my first vette not even a damn week and i was on the highway with my girl and a damn hill billy in a old ford came 3 lanes and side swiped me and then chased me down and then after ditching him he had the never to go to the local state patrole and say i hit him?

but the cop didnt believe his story and said "so your telling me a guy with a new vette is going to crash your truck i dont think so"

and i got my vette fixed but i could not believe it!

What an idiot... I guess the hill billy thought that if he got to them first, he'd be in the clear..

Spring is coming and my baby should be done hopefully within the next 4-8 weeks. Done except for interior and some other misc stuff..

She might not look the prettiest this year, but I finally will be able to keep up with you c4/c5 guys after all the mods are said and done.

I still need to figure out what's going to power this puppy but I'm thinking at least zz4 size hp/torque.

Timmy you must be psychic..... I'm totally on the same pg,... I've been eyeing that since it came out last year.. For the price, it's hard to beat that kind of output.
That's one of my first choices if I can afford it. Once I commit to that, I need to go to a BB hood which I do not currently have. Aftermkt that is another 600 -700 beans before any glass & paint work.

Or I was thinking of base zz and doing 1.6 rr and hot cam upgrade at a later date... At least then I'm in with the block i want that's totally upgradable when I can convince the wife to take on more debt.

Of course you can just pull your motor and have it built into that for probably a lot less money.

Well guys the decision has been offically made...

We're building a zz430. Well not exactly what was the zz430, but pretty darn close. It's a zz4 but upgrading to a lt4 hot cam and adding fast burns heads..
I should be back on the road in about 6ish wks. My fellow Thornton neigbors better keep the windows closed as I roll on by..
