2017 BG
 

I have to say a huge thankyou to the registry for a great at Bowling Green event . A big thanks to Mark and Ted and Paul for keeping the event running smoothly .
The new gokarts and touring laps were awesome even tho the weather did not play along as well for the touring laps and so mosty only got a few laps in but anytime to get on the NCM track is an honour becuase you are driving on a history making track , not just a race track.
Semminars and speakers were just that added bonus to the extended weekend .
Looking forward to next year

;)

Guys, this is a super event. If you've never been or haven't been in a while please consider attending the Gathering(s) if you can. There are superb talks and videos, special tours of exhibits with the folks who know the cars best, plenty of opportunities to exercise your car and great fellowship. Thank you to everyone involved, especially you Paul, for the hard work that goes into this unique event.

I wasn't able to make it this year, because my project was not ready, but hopefully I will be able to participate next year. Glad to hear a good time was had. :cheers:

Well, thanks for the props. But, the real credit goes to Ted Feder and Mark Horner -who did the yoman's "heavy lifting". And, far as the Mountain Run goes, the real credit goes to Gunny and Robert! (Me? I just drive crazy, and love Corvettes, as do the members of this SUPER CLUB (without which we'd all be at a loss, far as "Keeping the Legend Alive" goes..)

Carry on!

Paul.

Ha, you're right, I meant to credit Ted. Ted, you rock. Thanks for the catch, Paul.

Ditto for me, Mike. Goakats are a must, and track time was great despite the intermittent rain. Speakers were awesome. Doug Rippie and Ralph Kramer were excellent choices for stories about the glory years; I heard so much that I had not heard before. Love the spire for the Saturday dinner despite the acoustics. Met a lot of new people, and great to see younger people participating - kudos for members that are able to engage their kids.


Lots of ideas at the meeting for next year - let's keep it moving onward and upwards. BIG THANKS TO MARK AND TED and the entire Board for all you do for us!

I hear that the videos I provided of pirate racing were well received. I'm happy I was able to help make the gathering better even if I couldn't be there.

Re: 2017 BG
 

Both events were great, thank you all that put them together.
Eating in the spire is real cool, I don't know if they can do anything about the accoustics.
I was starting to feel bad for Mr. Kramer, people couldn't hear and started talking amoungst themselves, like they weren't interested.
Missed a lot of people that couldn't make it this year.
Saw a lot of old friends, and made some new. It's definately the people. - Steve

My first Gathering, but not my last. Go karts and touring lap were great.
Missed some sessions that I wanted to hear. I now have faces to go with some of the names here. Joined the Registry. My son and I had a great time. Thanks to anyone that helped to plan and execute this event. Although I loved eating in the Skydome, I could not here any of the speakers. It's just not good for that.

Was heartbroken to have had to miss this year's Gathering but are there aren't photos??? Surprised there have been almost none posted for those poor souls who couldn't make it!
