Give it another shot of GB Weld, you can make it. Did you get the parts you need to fix it?

Yeah just having a bit of a time tapping out the plenum to accept a threaded fitting instead of the discontinued press in fitting that broke.

Hope you get it fixed soon, the weather will be nice soon. As much as my Vette likes breathing this cooler air, the tires are wanting some warmer weather.

YouTube - Uniroyal Tiger Paw tires - TV commercial
How did you find that commercial?

I just came back from a joy/test ride, nice and sunny at 55 degrees. Made a little pass at 86MPH and I still can't get traction.

Good to hear. Does this mean your winter mods are done or was it a light winter mod year?

For all you folks sitting on the fence about this weekend... It supposed to be in the 60s... A first for the year for this event. I suggest you bring a chair. Its going to be huge! Williamsburg - Just another way to spell Irvine.... (Home of the original)

Wanted to thank you guys for helping to make C&C Williamsburg an on-going and growing success. I think we have done rather well considering a mere eight months ago (7 months if you only count events) from nothing - that we very well could break the 100 visitors at a single event ceiling this coming weekend. And to think we only had 55 in January. My goal is to deliver 150 cars to the lot by some fine C&C morning in June.

I know folks can't come to every event, life gets in the way... But thanks to those members here that have been to so many. I'll strive to keep it innovative and fresh... You folks just keep showing up when you can.

See you on Saturday - I think you will be mildly surprised... Latest word on the street is - bring a chair... Its going to be fun watching them all roll in. Darkpath
