I had a great time in Carlisle. I counted about 50 ZR-1's. Great job Dave! I got some pictures that I will post soon.

Congratulations are in order for two of our members:

Kirk (KirkStingray) won First Place in the NCCC judged Concours show.

Darrin (ZR1nce removed) won a Celebrity Choice Award presented by Gordon Killebrew.

Well done!

I was truly honored to receive Gordon's choice. He was supervising Jim and I during the plenum pull. As we were finishing up he placed his celebrity pick sticker on the windshield and said "this is my favorite ZR-1" he then placed his hand on my shoulder and said " that was for your Dad" I can't begin to explain how special his gesture was to me. Dad had gone to Gordon's school and really enjoyed visiting with him and Chris every time he saw them. I was truly moved by Gordon's consideration. especially since this is the first carlisle event since I lost my Dad. As if receiving Gordon's choice wasn't special enough, I was fortunate to have my other brother Darryl in town from Jacksonville Florida for the event to witness Dad's car recieve such a special award. MANY thanks to Gordon and thanks to Jim for joining me for the parade.

If anyone has some Carlisle pics that they want to share but don't have a good place to host/post them, email them to me and I'll add them to my Carlisle album.

It is always great to see you guys. You are a true asset to our small ZR1 community. If you are ever in the New York area, it would be great to have you over for dinner and a little fun with the Z. Don't even bother getting a hotel, I have room for all of you. Ramon, thanks for the time Saturday night talking ZR1's. Your passion for our cars is second to none. :cheers: My Brothers, Look forward to seeing your group again soon.

Rick.
