The Bowling Green Gathering
Well Gang,
Another weekend full of fun and suds. Hope all had a good time, we sure did. Next year we’re going to do a little bit more planning though…:-)) (maybe we'll order better weather too) Very nice to see the old faces but really nice to see the new ones. This year we had several "newbies" who were a blast. It’s always nice to see that glimmer in their eyes as they experience everything for the first time. The Museum was setup superbly and the staff did a very good job. Everything flowed very well and I saw no hangups whatsoever. Even Roc is getting better at this…<huge grin>. No actually, most of you know that Roc and I had some disagreements in the past regarding the event so he and I had a nice long lunch a few months ago and like two mature adults, put our heads together and came out with a very positive attitude for the future. I wish that could be said for all within our group…. You guys kept the shop busy with misc repairs and services. Sure glad I keep all those old parts just in case! Anyway, all is well, beagle’s almost recovered too. Thanks Gang for another fun weeknd. Jvd P.s. The weather today is absolutely brilliant. Not a cloud in the sky....

Re: The Bowling Green Gathering
Thanks Jim for hosting a nice get together at AutoMasters. It was great to see ZR-1 guys with a floor jack helping out fixing a tire. Great people is what it all about.
I also enjoyed you Pirate Racing Presentation at the Museum. It was entertaining and informative. You presented it well and I look forward to the release of your DVD. I agree with you about the Museum doing an excellent job organizing the event. I also think the improvements to the Museum have added a lot of value to the Corvette Community. Jim

Re: The Bowling Green Gathering
JVD,
Sorry I missed seeing you, but was only able to get up to BG for a couple of hours on Friday. The Wonder Beast is still going strong after your Pirates did their thing over the winter. I wanted to tell you face-to-face about some new Dyno Pulls. My "little engine that could" put down some numbers that may require you to re-calibrate your "Butt-O-Meter!"

Sorry we missed you but they did keep us pretty busy! You mean my "seat of the pants" meter is off a bit? Maybe too much padding!
