    Bourdais landed in JOTA Cadillac in WEC?!?!

    Team JOTA wasn't on the entry list last time I checked and Bourdais is listed as a driver in LMP2 with Tower Motorsports.

    Does your Blackwing get a Christmas present?

    My 4BW was my Christmas present. Santa (me) was two days late, but it was worth the wait.

    Pics of your Blackwing in regular parking spots

    Retired guy here. I drove my C7 Corvette 21K miles in 8+ years. I suspect the 4BW will get more mileage because the C7 wasn't the most practical road trip car, still, nothing like you DD guys.

    CT4-V Disappointed after lengthy Test drive

    I'm coming from a C7 Corvette so the visibility in the 4BW seems panoramic. 👀

    CT4-V Disappointed after lengthy Test drive

    Interesting. Maybe that's why so many are for sale---guys going to aftermarket wheels.

    CT4-V Disappointed after lengthy Test drive

    It slots in above the Z51 Stingray and below the Z06. It's essentially the Z06 chassis and body with the Stingray engine ~465 hp. You get a number of other upgrades over the Stingray that I mentioned above. It's a very capable track car, especially with the Z07 package which features carbon...

    CT4-V Disappointed after lengthy Test drive

    I would consider a 2LT Grand Sport. You get the wide body look but without the extra hp. Ediff, dry sump, mag ride, and some other cool stuff comes standard on the GS. If you want the extra HP, get the Z06. Even in Tour mode, the ride is going to be nothing like the 4BW. It's more like Sport...

    CT4-V Disappointed after lengthy Test drive

    My 4BW has a much reduced sensation of speed than my previous C7 Grand Sport. On a stretch of interstate recently, I was just toodling along enjoying the scenery when I realized I was really gaining on a few vehicles ahead. A quick peek at the HUD showed I was doing 93. It felt like 75 in the...

    Z06 guys are lucky

    I'm coming from a C7 Grand Sport and before that a C5 Z51, both manuals. Previously, I'd owned a RX7 FD, VW GTI, 911, Camaro, and Celica, all manuals. When the C8 was introduced, I wasn't deterred by the DCT, but I was holding out hope for a C8 Grand Sport. When I finally decided that it was...

    Decision Time, wouldn't mind the wisdom of the crowd

    What is the sticker price on both cars? I did something similar to Option A. My CT4-V Blackwing had a little under 1800 miles when I bought it. It has nearly every high-dollar option except the $1500 wheel upgrade. The 1800 miles saved me about $21K off sticker. 265 miles seems like a...

    First time V-car owner

    NF was the tail code for Carrier Air Wing 5. I was a Radar Intercept Officer (RIO) back in the '80s. My squadron was VF-151 and we flew the F-4 Phantom.
