One thing you'll never see me complain about is how easy it is to get to C5 from C7 and vice versa. I love that.

This forum is starting off just like Camaro5 did when it was a baby.

I'm liking how the site's starting to get a little more active lately though.

We should brainstorm on how to draw traffic to this place.

Yeah. Maybe we should go on different Corvette forums and put the sites link in our signatures.

I just turned on my calculator for the first time in months and the last thing I calculated was how much my C7 would cost.

There are other Corvette forums..

I'll just hang out and wait for this one to take off. Other Vette forums are all models. This is like the 5th Gen Camaro. New and going forward so we need to see some on the ground. Actually I heard someone say last night that a truck load arrived in Houston yesterday from the rail yard.

Won't be long.

I am not a fan of CorvetteForum, too much hate towards the C7. Every thread in that subforum is whining from people with older generations complaining how the Corvette lost it's way...

Yeah let's go back to carburetors, double clutching, and 3 speed transmissions while we're at it...

I hear ya... sort of like the hate for 5th gen Camaros on the F-body sites.

I think these two sites go hand in hand well together.

It's the same reason why General Discussion on Camaro5 right now is basically a 2014 hate fest.

People who can't stand knowing that what they own isn't the newest model out there any more will always complain, whether it be cars, cell phones, computers, etc. It's basic human nature. Especially in the case of the 2014 Camaros or the C7 Corvette. They're pretty huge departures from previous models so they're instantly recognizable as the "new car."

It is what it is. I understand it but eventually it just gets old and it litters some forums and can ruin reputations.

So question for you all, I started a blog about detailing and just wanted to get any constructive feedback any of you may have, positive or negative. Link is in my sig. Thanks!

Have you thought about putting your DIYs and Reviews in seperate sections?

I have, I may try it out I just didn't know if it would be good to split the website up. I'll give it a shot and update when I'm done and see how people like it.

Thanks!

Updated! For some reason I couldn't figure out Blogger how to add posts directly to the pages so it's a link page, if anyone knows any different feel free to post up. Thanks!
