Man, I am really sorry to hear that Steve. Are you still going to head up to Bowling Green this week? Let me know if there is anything I can do to help. If you want, I can lend you those ZR1s I bought from you earlier this year. You can swap the tires from your chrome ones until your new ones come in if they are going to take a while to get here. Just let me know if I can help.

Thanks Jeff..I gotta go down to the body shop and check out the time frame for completion of the repairs..I really doubt if I make it though...If it isn't finished in time no big deal I am not going to show up looking half assed at that show... I have a bunch of work related shows where I am going to have displays with the 2006 Corvette and the new Z06 coming up so missing one is not a big thing...I think that I was either attending or working a car show for like 9 weeks in a row back last spring\summer..so I'll be burned out again soon enough

I will meet up with you guys at the varsity.

I don't know if I'm going to run yet cause I'm still fixing some issues on my car but I can definitely come along to watch everyone else.

Well, I hope we still get a turnout at the 6:30am gathering at the McD's... I know me, Philiip, Mike, and Johnny will be there... what about you Dre? We'll probably grab some breakfast and haul down there afterwards.
