Oh I get it. Absolutely.

I should be hopeful that you are the worst thing that I will acquire over the years? It could be much worse. It could have been a terminal disease?

SAAC has been around quite a while too.

I suppose you are just SAAC's version of getting jock itch and be hopeful that it has some kind of limitations, that a spray here and there releaves some of the irritation even for just a little while?


It is probably true that without your constant posts this forum would just be a ghost town. A mere shadow of it's past.  It isn't your problem that when the village idiot starts his daily routeen that the echo is heard all over the building...daily...constantly...intensely maddening...never ending. Playing to an audience of one.

At least that one enjoys it.




Could not agree more. Perfectly said my friend.

Hey boys and girls looks like bucees back !




Kinda ironic, V.I. Tony. Anyone who sees you, the first thing that comes to mind: Old, fat, ugly, and a chain smoking cigarette loser. No wonder you have no life.

Dear sir

Lets address your concerns:

Tony. That's me !

Anyone who sees you, the first thing that comes to mind:

Old - nope

fat - nope, you are again mistaken

ugly - thats subjective, but you know I have never really looked at men and attempted to classify them as pretty or ugly.
But hey it's all good , what ever floats your boat


and a chain smoking cigarette - never smoked in my life

loser - don't think so, quite happy with how life has turned out

No wonder you have no life - au contraire mon ami, term used very loosely . What we lack is time or hours in the day, we just cant fit everything that we want to do. Price one pays when living in paradise

Now as a MODERATOR may I ask that YOU stay on topic.

''Ending the Corvette C8 controversy once and for all"


Marketed as America's sports car, it really comes as no surprise that the Chevy C8 Corvette is lauded by the automotive press for its performance capabilities and ease of living.

Currently in its third model year, the 2023 Vette has now been named to Car and Driver's 2023 10 Best list.

Proud to be in the greatest country and sports car in the universe.

USA !

Sir, I have not mentioned you (actually I don't even think of you, you just pop up with a negative post here and there) in any manner or form

What we have here is the classic case of the pot calling the kettle black !

May I suggest four things :

1 - start with a very needed self diagnoses of yourself.

Why is it that I am not happy ?

2 - follow my daily postings of Fighting (I know you secretly do) Negativity.

This will allow you to absorb different perspective on a daily basis.

3 - remember to always breath

4 - stay on topic....C8

Tony,
You should take your own advice. You would be a better person.

Did you know that this affordable, disposable,  will out run the 2nd and 3rd generation GTs on a 0 to 60.

Will outrun the 2nd gen in the 1/4 and the 3rd gen barely edges it out, dang its embarrassing !

That's just the regular C8, not the ERay or the Z06.

Those two will give the million dollar plus cars pure headaches.
When you can show me a car for $ 70k +/- today that can do this, I will listen to you.

Until then long live the C8 and America the beautiful  !

C8 intake looks like a puffin's eye. It's a huffin' and a puffin.
"Low she sits on five spoke wheels
Small block eight so live she feels
There she's parked beside the curb
Engine revving to disturb
She's the princess from his past
Red paint gold stripes damned she's fast"

Yes it is a huffing and puffing as it passes those million dollar cars, LMAO  !

When you are inside a C8, the interior looks like a jet fighter and as you accelerate it's an experience second to none

By the way did you know that:

Now General Motors is reaping the rewards of the Corvette's improved interior – literally. The C8 Corvette cabin was named to Wards' Automotive's 10Best Interiors list , with the publication saying the mid-engine sports car's "alluring exterior is writing checks this dramatic interior is fully capable of cashing."
