Marc's BBQ was a huge success! - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

Paul Workman · 04-23-2012

The unofficial count is 28 Zs! That is a pretty good turnout for a half-day BBQ event, I must say!! Thank you Marc for hosting. Marc had a big 20x20 tent to shelt the food and block the wind, and various volunteers brought deserts, and condements and charcoal, and drinks...What a hoot!

This photo was taken over an hour before the scheduled time for the BBQ to start...Gives an idea how popular this event turned out!

This was a chance for many to see the traveling trophy "the big boys" of the FBI won at the Crown Point Corvette Challenge (shootout) last fall. (I hope it becomes a "permanent" fixture!)

Some unusual pix...

FI anyone??

And quick video clip (It was windy, so I suggest you turn your sound off to avoid wind noise).

Hopefully, some others will post some more pix too!

A great time had, and in addition to Marc and Susan, a big thanks to the gals too, that took over the BBQ'in while the guys oogled cars and BS'ed. Thanks, Ladies!! Thanks very much!

Sure would be nice to have a 28 car corral at Bloomington this year!

Very cool folks, wish I could have made it up.

Is that one ride purple ?

OK I am officially jealous of EVERYONE who made the BBQ. However my DVD from Marc arrived and I have converted it so I can see it on my computer. Played hooky from most of my work and duties today, locked myself in my office and watched the DVD. Not sure how many times but it was worth watching multiple times.

Thanks for the photos folks. Sort of give all of us that could not attend a feeling of inclusion.

Looks like it was a great do.=D>

Yep it was sent to Callaway by a previous owner and it had new panels installed and was painted purple "don't know the exact color name" the interior was all redone and the motor breath on. It really is a great car, Roger said he should be at Bloomington gold this year.
