ZR Registry- Broadening the Registry Universe

[Riviera]

My concern about broadening the scope of the registry is how it might affect gatherings such as BG. Would there be a need to have ZR1 seminars in addition to the seminars specific to the C4 generation? That would be a lot to pack into basically 3 days. Would we lose C4 participants as they wouldn't want to "pay" for seminars that are not pertinent to their vehicle? I have no problem with other generation Z owners being members of the registry, however I would like the primary focus of the registry to remain C4 based. Don't know if that can be done.

FWIW, Marc Haibeck owns a C6 ZR1 and has done some mods to it so it is now about 740 HP. So he could probably give some seminars on that one too. But I also agree it would be too bad to loose the C4 focus of our registry. If the group and board decides to expand its horizons, it is a process that would have to be carefully managed to satisfy as many people as possible. --Bob

Riv,

If you have attended The Gathering in the last 10 years, I believe that the seminars don't really attract the number of participants that came previously.
Speaking for myself, the primary draw of The Gathering is the camaraderie and some of the events. It's great to meet and connect w long distance friends and owners. The FBI has participated for the last 6 years in the Corvette Challenge where we enjoy great interaction w other Corvette owners. And it makes it so much sweeter when our group "kicks ***" at the drags there.

I have been to the Gathering twice. 2014 prior to purchasing our Z and 2016 with our Z. On those two occasions all the seminars were very well attended, at least from my observation. The events are excellent. For me to go to BG it is a two day drive, so I want "the complete package", good seminars and good events. My two experiences to date have been excellent. I feel the executive do an amazing job organizing bòth BG and Carlisle.
