As an aspiring Corvette owner growing up (I'm now 34) in the C4 era, I read about everything "Corvette" I could get my hands on. I read about people like Dave McLellan, Jerry Palmer, John Cafaro, John Heinricy, Jim Ingles, Fred Schaafsma, Doug Robinson, Tommy Morrison and many others who turned the Corvette into the world class sports car it is. These were and are the people I really admired. With a lot of work, I got my low mile '85 in 1990 and in 2001, bought my all time dream car, the ZR-1. This is surely a longer comment than this site is looking for, but all I can think of at the moment to say is "Thank you Dave". I look forward to meeting you someday. As for a mid-engined Corvette, I think that if the increased performance trend continues at the rate it has been, even with tighter CAFE standards on the horizon, then a mid-engined car and even 4 wheel drive will be the focus of more attention by the Corvette team - especially in getting that increased power to the pavement.

We're about 90% complete with the design of the website, getting it ready for Dave's February 1st launch. The Header image for the site is a "concept" rendition of the final product. The picture of Dave with the image is certain to stay, I'm waiting for final approval on the font used in the logo for Corvette Chief and as for the schematic in the background, tis is just there to show the "idea" for the background and we are actually in search of a "schematic" of a car engine as is used in the background of Dave's book "Corvette From The Inside." In talking with Dave, I can assure you that the podcast will be quite interesting. However, in all my conversations with him, Dave hasn't mentioned anything about music to me. I figured folks might pick up on the incorrect image in the background. This will make for a good "history/trivia" topic for CorvetteChief.com when Dave celebrates his 1st full year in podcasting in February, 2009. Cliff Ravenscraft here from BitCast Media.

Your picture with the Corvette engine and what appears to be a schematic of a musical instrument keyboard in the background portend well for how interesting it's going to be. Best of luck. Marc Dave,
