ZR-1 Northeast Get Together

[Mystic ZR-1]

ZR-1 Net Registry Northeast get together: Saturday, July 9, 2011 @ American Le Mans Northeast Grand Prix at Lime Rock Park. Lime Rock,Connecticut

Lime Rock is sort of centrally located in the Northeast and will make a great place for a ZR-1 get together, of course all ZR-1s from everywhere are more than welcome and encouraged to attend. All the "hard work" is already done by the good folks who run the "Corvette Corral" (not to mention the great goody bag they hand out) all we have to do is show up and watch the C6Rs kick some butt and show off to the rest of the Corvette (and Porsche etc.) world why the ZR-1 is so special and is the most unique Corvette ever built. If the rest of the world doesn't understand or agree, it's their loss...
Note: this ZR-1 get together is not put on or run by the "Corvette Corral", (but it has been sanctioned by the ZR-1 Net Registry) we'll just be attending and having our own get together @ their event .
Tickets for the Corral (car & driver) must purchased prior to the event, by phone or the Lime Rock website, see below. Tickets for your lucky passenger may be purchased ahead of time or @ the the gate on the day of the event. Bring a folding chair and a cooler!

We're trying to set up a ZR-1 only parade lap of the track (seperate from parade lap mentioned below) stay tuned for updates

info: Doug, aka: Mystic ZR-1 @ dmarshall2003@comcast.net



Lime Rock again offers the fun and camaraderie of Porsche and Corvette Car Corrals as part of the ALMS Northeast Grand Prix event. Corrals include guaranteed infield parking as well as a parade lap! Parade laps are offered on Saturday to the first 50 cars that arrive at the track from each make. Note: CAR CORRAL TICKETS ARE NOT SOLD ON THE DAY OF THE EVENT, ONLY BY ADVANCE PURCHASE. Includes admission to Lime Rock Park.

I am a (relatively, since last year) new ZR-1 owner here in CT. I would really like to attend some of these events. Unfortunately, the timing for these events always seems to conflict with other things in my life.

This one sounds great, but I'll be pn vacation and I can't change that. I'll be looking for more events to attend in 2011.

Welcome to the registry. There is a posting in the Northeast section with events for 2011. We will be meeting in eastern New York the end of June at Lebanon Valley dragway and also there is a super event planned for Mystic, CT in early October. Hope you can attend.

Welcome to our asylum! Hopefully there will be plenty to do this summer. Stick around & pull up a tire & have a seat.

When the weather gets better, please bring your beast over to the Tues. night corvette cruise at Burgerittoville in Newtown, CT. Sponsored by Candlewood Valley CC and just off Exit 10 on I-84. Should start up in a couple weeks and usually runs around 5:30 - dusk.

Please drop me a line if you need/want more info.
