1. That is very sad news on the co-worker and the women he killed. May god have mercy on their souls That said, speeding kills many more people every year and I guarantee that there is NO ONE who buys a ZL1 or SS and doesn't occasionally speed. We all do things that put ourselves and others in danger. Lets not cherry pick our morality.

2. I didn't say the bulletin mentions tires blowing out. I thought I read that people reported on this board, the Shelby board, and a Vette board about blow outs. I could be wrong. If it's just the cracks, I can live with that.

3. I just wish someone would have told me about the tires before the sale because it is a real PITA. I only found out about the problem from joining this board.
