The last time I was in NYC was in '83, I was driving a white T-Top '81 Corvette and I was in Long Island going to the city on the LIR and it was rush hour, but the traffic was leaving the city. So going in traffic wasn't bad until we got to I guess the Mid-town tunnel, we were merging from about 5 lanes down to 2 lanes. There was a guy in a car next to me and he wasn't budging and I wasn't budging, I think he yelled out something about where I could put my Corvette. Eventually I got ahead and that was my biggest memory of driving there that week. Other than when I checked into my motel in Sheepshead Bay. The desk clerk saw I wrote down Corvette on the registration and said, park your car right in front of the lobby glass windows.
