Did anyone tape this on the Discovery Channel?

Haven't watched it yet. They repeat it at 10(Chicago time). Planned to watch and tape it. Want a copy?

Mike,
Sure. Who wouldn't want a copy?
Are you going to C3 Extrav in Bowling Green?

No, can't make it. Used up all my Vette show time for the year. 3 days at Bloomington, Mid Am Vettefest, Chevy/vettefest. Prefer a show with a swap meet, anyway. One of these days I'll get back out to the museum again. Last there in 96.
Email me an address and I'll send it out tomorrow if you want.
Mike

Its on right now, supposedly it is being TiVoed for me. Here's hoping TiVo can be converted to DVD/VHS/Divx. I'll help out friends if I get it for sure. Even if they skip the C3...I still think its looking good so far! |cheers|

Was interesting, but nothing said about C3s. Would really like to see a show like it done back in 67/68 about the C3 introduction.
Lets see; (1)Fit and finish, especially paint/doesn't matter. (2)Squeaks and rattles/OK-plenty. (3)Ride quality/who cares, it's a Vette!
Just kidding, I love my C3s.
Watching that test drive at 180 mph was something, tho.

I watched it twice. Kinda disapponted that they didn't even mention the shark years, but it was good tv for a change!
