So if I were to get a tune with Phil on my 13 SS Stingray would have no problem honoring the warranty? Please enlighten me...

We teamed up with our friends from Tri-County yesterday for the 11th annual Bud Run for Children's Charity... the poker run was a lot of fun, and the auction at the end of the run was amazing, but the sense of camaraderie and pride we felt from supporting such a great cause was absolutely priceless. Thanks again for the invite, Tim.

A very special day with friends hope we can do it more often.

Thanks to all who came in support.

I may be heading to Florida end of the year. Moving back down there. Going to take time to sell up here in Richmond, VA. It will be fun.

Nice pics. Was a good time. Was nice seeing everyone.

Blues45th · 05-19-2013, 09:05 PM

Sucks I had to head out before the pics. Had a great time. Can't wait for another dual club outing.

Alright guys its love bug season and I personally have ocd about my paint. I detail it every two weeks, with only polishing once every 3 months. That being said. What do you guys use to clean the bugs and keep them off? I've used griots garage for most of my care products but I can never find bug cleaner by them.

mrvenicess · 05-20-2013, 01:24 PM

If you have lots of wax on it they come off pretty easy with a wet drier sheet. I washed and waxed my car this weekend, getting ready to trade it in on a ZL1, and the bugs just washed right off.

Someone suggested spraying my front end with PAM before driving anywhere... I suppose it's an option, but it's not for me... As Paul suggested, good wax and dryer sheet works well.

If you haven't waxed in a while and you're trying to get 'em off quickly and easily, an inexpensive / effective method is Blue Magic Bug & Tar remover; dab a bit on each spot, come back to the 1st after it's set for a bit and they come right off.

Doctades · 05-20-2013, 05:05 PM

I'll have to keep that stuff in mind, where do you guys find it.

mrvenicess · 05-20-2013, 08:34 PM

Im hoping they are not too bad now. 2 weeks ago at the Muscle car shootout some guys got covered! I hope to pick up my ZL1 this week so they had better be gone!

Liam · 05-20-2013, 08:53 PM

For a long trip, Plastidip the front then peel it off when u get there. $6 cost and no bugs! Sounds crazy...so crazy, it just might work!

Doctades · 05-21-2013, 02:23 PM

Liam I am actually traveling down to pompano to pick up some cf bowties from the guys over at G3 composities in pompano. I might try that. Traveling sr60 and then the turnpike will be filled with love bugs I am sure.While im down there a friend trying to sell a k&n cai and a Corsa cat back. Anyone interested
