That's what duct tape is for!!
I've never been on a long trip in any of the 'Vettes where it didn't rain somewhere along the way.

You know that seems ture all the time when I go places.
We ask mother nature to hold of wet weather until the 30th. Then rain.

Ahem, an Joel just eactly are you suggesting this duct tape be placed?
Careful how you answer, remember my wife is comming.



My t-tops don't seem to leak but I've been told that the right vent drips whether opened or closed. Ah just where a bathing suit and don't let anything stop you. Just slow down and drive careful. See everyone soon.

I use it to put around the windersheild on the sides, and along the top to seal the t-tops/windersheild areas. This seems to keep most of the rain from drowning ya as you fly down the road! It may not look too kewl, but, neither does wet pants!
You(or your wife!) might have other "creative" uses for it!!

My roof leaks some over the header panel. Probally because I don't King Kong down the top. (I run a 1 piece Astro Roof.) I don't know if the T's would be better or not. I had them painted and I put them up. I think they have only been in the car once on a trip since I owned it.(when I brought it home.)

Virginia....
Did about 200 miles hooked up with C6 on the way down...which was nice...
Hot here ...but the pool was COLD....HOT TUB was just right however...
one jump in the pool and spent 1/2 hour in the hot tub...room is only
30 foot from the pool...so I grabbed the laptop and am letting you guys and gals I'm on my way....Rain Rain stay away...BUT if I remember
correctly (who could forget) it did rain a "little bit" at Hershey a few years ago BUT Me and The Wife still had a hell of a good time....no reason to think otherwise this trip...

Have not done the official math yet but it looks like the C5 may have broken 30 mpg and that was with 75-80 mph the entire trip...81
is like a racetrack....
