Yeah higher population along with more performance shops makes that likely. I still don't think I would trust anyone on the roads down there to be doing 100 in my own car. Up here it's a little different, people don't normally dodge out in front of you.

I want to take my skylark down as I've never had a car in the show, just went to peruse.


I'll be down at Veit looking at a bunch of his cars on the 16th of July, but that the only next time my car will be out. It only comes out once a month on average.

We don't all own F-bodies though. I'm sticking with my A body and you can't change my mind

I know a guy with a mustang that's gone on vette cruises. . . .


But owning a GM car yes I probably would have gone, if I was invited.

I would have gone. Most Vette owners are older and some can be very serious and not personable which can make it not as fun. But hey it's all about the cats and the love we have for them.
