I hope this helps, but you should get your manual out and read it. Lots of good information in there.
Thanks, that was exactly was I was looking for. I checked the manual but didn't see that tied to the speed set warning. Now that it's safe and sound in the garage I can get the manual out and experiment with the controls.

First put on a wife-beater t-shirt. Next get a crescent wrench or large ball-pien hammer. Now stroke your DIC (its buttons) until it enters the programming page for the audible speed warning choices. Now just start screaming at it that it's going to do as you say PERIOD! Wave the tools in your hand in a threatening manner and use the word BITCH a lot. Such as "you hear me Bitch"? You better never correct me in front of my friends, BITCH! You may need to do this for hours (if you got the voice based on my wife) when she missed a sale at Nordstroms. But just keep screaming, you'll win in the end. That's it. You'll figure out the rest. Remember they do not cover these details in the manual - no one at GM could use bitch in a threatening manner. You could just read the manual and see what it says but my will make you feel better about it. Good Luck!
That's some funny chit!

Just reach down the front of your pants and move it to the left or right.

RTFM! In the amount of time it took you to write this you could have looked in the book and had it done.

Indeed, humor is one thing but at least let the guy warm up a bit before you rake him over the coals.

But hey, why not pile on...

Unfortunately it has been a increasing occurrence on the site lately. A lot of ragging on new members. It's sad and a way to make sure people won't stay around long.

Yeah, I was a bit surprised at the responses on this thread. What I remember from this site was a lot of really, really helpful people... particularly to new Camaro owners.

In the "online world" I consider Camaro5 one of the better communities. Although I haven't been around a lot lately, it is sad if it has changed that much.

I never payed any attention to that option. I am going to have to look it up because I can think of some places it could come in handy.
