Default Car and Driver 50th Vette Annaversary

**Link Removed**

Most of the show is dedicated to the Vette. The show opens up with a road test of the special edition 50th annaversary Vette and then it transitions into a huge Vette ralley/meet in Kentucky. We then get a profile on one of the classic vet.

This DL is for JW members only so please dont share as I am hosting this from my home connection.

Heh, I just watched that show this morning! It's a good watch, it has a bunch of cool stuff, such as the awesome 550bhp L88! I guess those are the rarest Corvettes ever, I didn't know that. But it's not entirely true, I can't give all the facts, because i can't remember all of it! Anyway, the wife of one of the older GM CEO's was given a convertable Vette in a blue color. I dont' remember the year, but it was the only convertable for that year and it's the only Corvette to have the blue color. There is no other Vette like it.
Anyway, this is a cool video and Vette fans will probably like it!
Thanks for the video Fishfreek, I'm glad you decided to stick around here!

I still have the first C5 test done by Motor Trend TV(now C&D) back in 97. Those couple years were MT TV's best. Man I wanted one of those. Thinking of getting one early next year.

Heh, sorry for confusing you! I was referring to when you first started helping Jabba with the forums. You said that you weren't sure how much you would be around other than to help with forum problems. I was just saying it's nice that you have stuck around.

I dont like how they skipped over the C4. Considering the C4 is where the worlds fastest street car comes from, i dont understand how they could skip it. Im talking about the Sledgehammer corvette of course, which still holds the record at 254.5 mph.
