I see mostly C5s and C6s around and most wave. However, the ear-to-hand
implant prevents some, but if no implant, they usually wave.
Very different from Ft Lauderdale in the `80s. Most new C4s down there
seemed to have no clue as to the tradition of Corvettes, or even any desire
to learn them. I had one ask why I waved, and after I told him, he had a
blank look on his face and asked, Why?

Mostly, I have 1.6 Crane roller rockers, T-Body AirFoil, K&N w/Open Lid,
HyperTech Programming
and I did the MAT sensor relocate and T-Body coolant bypass but they
caused it to run
worse at part throttle. And a Ripper Shifter w/ White Classic Hurst Knob.

don`t know the unspoken word! <lol>

I automatically wave at all Vettes regardless of year. Some return it,
but some younger drivers in C5`s & 6`s don`t seem to get it.
