The "crickets" are frying in North Texas right now, but car show season is upon us anyway. Maybe the others got lost? :lol:

Don't worry, I'm keeping an eye on all of you, just been busy on other forums, and running our local vette forum...

I did drop my CE off at a shop in Phoenix this saturday, they are working on the AC, and replacing all the bushings to tighten up the suspension, plus an alignment....

Browse back to last years "Chirp-Chirp-Chirp" thread from the Dawg.. Same thing happens over the summer.. :lol:

For my part: Sweating my derriere off.
Had the chance to drive the car in a thunderstorm 2 weeks ago (went really well, not too much drippage; the sound of water shooting out from under those wheelwells when you plow into a flooded road, is impressive :shock: ), and once just cruising to work and to a friend and home. Made me happy, had the car car out more then in the last year combined.. After getting the rad & water pump replaced she runs cool in almost all weather. Amazing what new gear can do.. She hasnt been out of the 120F region yet, even at 95F out. :D

Now, no chance, as my AC still isnt fixed.. :cry:

Other priorities abound, still trying to sell the house, having an almost 2 year cutie to take care of. And on and on..

Just keep on driving.. 8) 8)

:wave

I took the CE for it's first good run on Sunday with the local club....did a little over 250 km. Nice & tight, shifts nice, no problems or weird noises. All the temps are fine. :D
It was the first time I brought the CE out to a club function, no one knew we even had it.
It attracted a lot of attention, especially when I popped the rear hatch. 8)

It's great to see you and others enjoy the vette. That must of been an awesome surprise for the club seeing it with you. :wink:

Yeah I thought of the "chirp chirp" thread when I saw this one started..

It's good to see you guys out driving your CE's, I can't wait to drive mine with all the new bushings. It should be fun autoXing it this fall with everything tight..

I did the same thing with the SG this spring, new "A" arm bushes, springs, U & L ball joints, tie rods, 4 wheel alignment. It made a big difference in the handling.

Well, I'll be driving the quickest red vehicle I have for a week. As others would do when you have tooo many vehicles. I'm putting the vette in the shop so I can replace the starter and rap a heat sheild around the new one. The one I have now gets way hot when I drive the vette for a long period of time and when I shut the vette off and come back in 5 minutes the vette will not start. :( I hate it when we go on treks. Have to leave the vette running or just wait for half hour to let the engine cool down. :( Oh well just another reason to drive the other vehicles. :)
