Just thought I would step in and say hey. One more long time veteran of "that other place" who has finally had enough of the BS that goes on over there.

I have it on good authority that the moderators here are stand up guys who like facts, opinions and discussions but don't tolerate pointless bickering, name calling, or general trolling behavior.

Welcome to the forum. I'm one of the C3 guys but we all kind of hang out together. You'll like it here. By the way, there really aren't moderators. Just guys. Good guys that like interacting with fellow Corvette enthusiasts. Post some pics.

Be very careful what you say here.

The moderators aren't wrapped too tight.

I love C3's, especially the chrome bumper ones, but mostly because you can drop a big block and side pipes on any of them.

I'm not as much of a C5 / C6 fan. Don't get me wrong they're great cars but as they are newer, too many owners have that holier than thou attitude. C5's are getting less so ever since the C6 came out. The same will happen to the C6 when the C7 hits the streets. It's latest and greatest syndrome. Nothing wrong with the cars, just some serious problems between the ears of some of their owners.

Welcome aboard! Glad another has come to their senses... I wonder how many will follow? Time will tell... last time there was an exodus, about 400 people joined!

Welcome. The members here are good people all around, regardless of Corvette generation. We like cars, women (and the women like guys for the most part) and beer (some of us N/A beer). Check us out. BillH and Matatk go off on the deep end sometime but that's why I'm here. To keep everybody straight. Enjoy.

Count me on the N/A for the beer. Can't stand the stuff. Vodka Tom Collins is my drink of choice.

And then I come in and whip them all into shape...

This isn't a moderator staff as much as it is herding cats.

+1 on the Welcome

You will find this forum to be a relaxed atmosphere for most of the time but when you need some good information about your Corvette this is the place to find it.
