Hi All

I am proud to announce that my 1995 ZR-1 #273
Achieved a NCRS Chapter Top Flight
with the Metro Long Island New York Chapter 6/1/14
with a total scoring of 99.5 points

And now I am getting her ready for P V Judging at the
2014 NCRS New England Regional Meet

Wish me luck

NCRS Performance Verification Award®Back to Top

This award was created by the National Corvette Restorers Society in 1985, the award recognizes individuals for the restoration and preservation of 1953 -1996 Corvettes. To achieve this award, an owner must attain a NCRS Flight award® based on an original "as manufactured" standard at a NCRS event; as well as present the car for a rigorous performance test of all vehicle mechanical components and functions, all of which must operate as those of a new car, without a single failure. As of today only 1,396 Corvettes have received the NCRS Performance Verification award

Good luck!!! We'll probably see ya there!

Helpful hints:
*Squirt a little WD40 on your rear storage compartment lid
latches so they latch when dropped from about 6 inches
*wipe a little WD40 on your hatch strut operating rods so they work smoother, they may bust your stones because the hatch does not go all the way up by itself
*know how to open the rear hatch manually, theres a cable you can pull buried under the carpet near the pull handle for the "shade"
