I like what I hear with the pipes open and the back seat down. Shifting gears around town up to a whopping 40mph 🏁

Good one!

Just back from storage - 5BW was in storage 10 days, fired right up but initially took a minute or so to "wake-up" the instrument cluster when I entered the car. Seemed to be in some kinda sleep mode or, was sleeping...had to wiggle some buttons to wake it up - or the dash is just slow after...

Same instruction in 2024 5BW manual. Ill have to try it. I leave my hood popped when car in storage. Could leave the trunk popped. Gonna check on it tomorrow but the battery will def be low. Gonna charge it full but when stored for more than a week I'll pull the neg cable at battery per the...

Mmm, that sounds like a tasty burger.

good point. likely also sidewall temp. Summer only tires really puts us all-season cold rain weather drivers at caution. or seriously on jacks 1/4 the year. Parked in the garage until Spring.

FYI, Stealth vs 3" MagPad (generic)

Same, kinda. Looking at a truck for towing, house/yard stuff. 4x4. I've read so much on current trucks. It might be depressing. Sat in a few. Looking at Cayman since I apparently need a 2-door...sat in a few. The 2026 M2 has 2-doors. How about a NIssan for you? The newest SUV, is it the Armada...

More ZL1 stuff deilvered yesterday, my second order, added; MagPuck(s), Stealth Tow, 3" Deluxe Jack MagPad. Might put the car up "on blocks" for Winter but have not worked out exactly how. But I got the ZL1 parts to do it. Or for an eventual 2-post lift that I dream of. The Stealth Lift Pads...

It is.

Okay, Camaro chassis tow plates at ZL1Addons will not fit Blackwing. Ryan said so, helped me with my cart/order. They also invite any Blackwing owner in San Diego to swing by so they can make more parts for the car. The cerakote 1/4-20 bolts are wicker bill only at this point. I was playing...

125 miles used at pickup, 1 year old '24. Unicorn. Summer tires only and going into storage Tuesday. Or tell me the Winter only OEM 275/305 sized tires they don't make so I can keep it on the road on snow/wet wet wet sleet rut rivers and rain hydroplaning suprise confidence. I'm at 500 miles on...

@DCV Traded for a Porsche. Bold, succinct. Maybe, even, a clever move. How dat and, what trim? Did you post about a 4S? Or, what did you spec? I've been oogling Caymans for 3 years but jumped at the used CT5 3-pedals 6speed V-8 Cadillac sleeper as soon as I saw it. No delay. Epic. But the...

ZL1 sent a cart reminder!, good! Recovered my stuff. but it got wiped out again. Argh. Tomorrow for sure. Shipping now up to $25 clams. Ugh, but legit.

sweet black Blackwing. Dirty (heh), but sweet. Nice wheel color! @csle36

Not going to put green in mine for the reasons @shbox states. LMP confirmed on their dyno the OEM 4" intake is plenty good enough even though they offer their 5". ps. I still need/want a catch can. Maybe the LMP, I dunno.

pulling a 12.9 in Blizzaks. Okay. Good to know! Ah, looks like you have an extra radiator? I want that but remove the CT5 front end to install, ugh. Ah, I see the CT4 has dual air filters- nice. Only 1ea in the 6.2L. Less is more? ps I'm shopping for an CT4 or a Cayman or a Z or a this-or-that...

Master mechanic level stuff there, Katy. Sharp. And safe.

Thankfully, no update available yesterday on '24 CT5-V Blackwing. I think I updated it, maybe, once, since July. The darn USB audio stick fires up playing every.single.time - cannot stop the thing from playing if its plugged in. Total B.S. Though. I think I read there's a new GM head of...
