Ugh when are they going to fix this pos posting error with the 30sec and taking forever to post?

it has the heads up display, nav (which shows the corvette logo on startup), memory seats. the two tone interior i fell in love with. torque is a monster, its over 400 but i cant remember the exact number.

Saw on FB a few days ago, but wasn't it throwing a code? Or, was that not yours?

Are you referring to the one where it prevents you from posting again within 30 seconds? If so, what do you think is a more reasonable time?

Nah uh Chris. Any new post I submit here or anywhere takes a really long time post. Than pops up with that error. I would have to go back and check to see if the post posted.

So if you turn off traction control, the CEL goes away?

I get something similar except since I'm an admin, it allows me to double post instead of returning an error. That's why I always double post in this thread.

I think it's because this thread is so big and it has so many deleted and unapproved posts within it. After you make a post, wait for a few seconds, then just go about your business; the post should have been made so no need to wait and see what happened (usually).

Other people have noticed a recent issue getting logged off. I think it happened to me awhile back and clearing cookies fixed it. Hopefully they fix the img posting soon too.

The work truck I drive in San Angelo did that once as well, and hasn't been on since. I have a tendency to turn it off and slide around turns on the ranch roads...

I just thought Stu was looking at a nismo z. I thought Stu was trolling at that as well lol. He's so good at it. Cracks me up in the off topic area.

Congrats again Stu. Good pick up from Trav, he's just as bad as me at being ****/ocd so you got a top notch condition vehicle. Glad the car went to family.

I do like the looks of the Nismos, but looking back at it, it's definitely not worth $4-6k more.

Most importantly TDX V2 and ART pipes so I can be super loud

I take forever to get going at red lights and then I feel bad for holding people up so I just floor it.
