Ouch, Dan that really hurts :) Nothing wrong with a crossfire, lowest dyno and all! Dwayne and I met last year at the pavillions, some parking lot director decided to have the "older vets move over a row to let the new ones in corvette row. Of course he directed me behind Dwayne and then let Dwayne back into me. Small damage on mine. Some sanding and touch up paint and no one knows. Dwayne got the worst. He was :cool a gentalman and offered to pay to fix mine. As it turned out Chapman wanted $700.00. So I'm a handy guy and did the work myself. No hard feelings . Like Dwayne I stayed away from the Pavillions for a long time and have only been back once to visit with friends. Parked away from all the action. I'll see ya all Sat.

Hey Thom, If you see my taking a swipe at a Crossfire, I'm actually only picking on Dwayne. Hate to admit it, but until my next Vette he can take me in a straight line. You have one of the nicest C4s I've ever seen, so don't take my crossfire comments seriously! :cheers

Umm Dan,

I think I can take you not only in a straight line, but a crooked line, a curvy line, and possibly even a corkscrew line...

And I can probably even stop quicker then you... :lol:lol:lol

What I can't do is cook breakfast on my hood... :ack

BTW, remember there were a couple of C3 years with only 170 hp out the door... :huh

Is it really that big a deal?

Saw this posted in my DeLorean Yahoo Group:

From: "thebrave65" <johnny.sawyer@...>

Subject: Doors at the Pavillions

I just got an e-mail from a friend of mine/fellow owner in New Jersey

who told me that he read about our so-called "door hazard" at the

Pavillions. I think he said he saw it posted on dmchelp, but I don't

remember.

Anyway, it seems we are creating a few waves nationally about this

stupid claim!

As far as I'm concerned, the issue has passed. Just wanted to show that yes, it did create a bit of a buzz in the community.

In my opinion, if you guys would just paint those things a decent off white, you wouldn't draw so much attention to yourselves...

I didn't know there was such a thing as a decent off white.

It took 20 cans, but I got the whole car.

I don't think I like it. I'm going to go get some paint thinner and some rags to take it off.

Ya know -- I actually like that !!

Way better than the red one that is out there.

Maybe some racing stripes?

Looks like the spray paint changed your wheels too.
