I will not make this event. My son has a soccer tournement on Sunday. The kids are at that age that their schedule has taken over. The Corvettes have been parked for a while. If not soccer, it's volleyball, or music, or school, etc. But it's a wonderful time!

Re: Drag race SHOOTOUT REMINDERS!
kind of fun to read about you guys with kids and can't go. from 90 to 97 I wanted to go to a lot of the ZR-1 weekends and could not due to the kids. I was 39 back than and had the same problem. Now that I am 62 and have time to do some of this stuff, but now I am just a little slower than back than, take a little longer to do stuff!
so hang in their all you young guys! some day you will not know what to do with all the time you will have on the weekends. I just hope I can pull the lever as fast as I use to and not miss a gear! don't know if my left leg will move as fast as my right arm. but the neat thing is the 90 is just the same! I get in it and I do feel like I am 39 once more. Dean Nelson |

Right now it's a bit iffy. Showers and high 60s. But it keeps moving around.
