I spoke with Gordon Killebrew's wife the other day, I was getting the school schedule for 2007, when she told me that he was going to be inducted into the National Corvette Museum's Hall Of Fame on August 31st. Just thought I would pass on the information to everyone as Gordon has been a wealth of C4 knowledge.

I wrote up an article with some of the cool tales of Gordon. I will post it up and also send it in for a future registry newsletter. Jim and I attended the Gordon ZR-1 School and not only was it very educational, it was alot of fun and the home made food was just awesome!!
Chris can really cook. his school is a ZR-1 lovers dream with many partial engines and parts for inspection as well as a full dash test rig for troubleshooting the electronics.
gordon is a walking encyclopedia of parts/numbers, and how to fix the car.
I highly recommend it. if you were ever scared of doing a plenum pull, this will give you some hands on experience. he'll also fix some of the little problems with your car that he sees at the school.
gordon also every year offers the "drive through" ZR-1 clinic at the gathering. he can trouble shoot and often repair the car on the spot!!
he performs this service as a freebie every year as well as doing many fixes at carlisle. gordon is a gent and an fantastic friend of the ZR-1 community!!
:cheers: :thumbsup:
