Not to belabor this topic. We did call the Dealer and they also thought that you could just show up! So we will go and hope for the best. I just corrected my post sorry if I confused anyone, sigh.

They will let you register when you show up in the morning or they said you can register online as well. Go to
Westernmacorvetteclub.com
Sorry for not giving more notice.
They have a 100 cars Corvette limit and said there at about 65 now so there is room for more. Registering insures you a spot in the show itself and eligible for trophy and all.
Hope this helps.
The Western MA club is meeting at McDonalds at the Armory St. rotary @ 8:00 A.M.
This is located off Rt. 291 in Springfield. Exit 3 across from the state police barracks.
Join in if you guys want.
Will be nice to see the Posse again. Looking forward to more outings. You guys are great people!

Dave....I'll go to breakfast and meet with my bud's also...HOWEVER, because things were so ****ed up I will not be going to THAT show.

I suggest we go to a car show, but not that one. There must be consequences.

Thanks Jeff for clearing this up.
I'll see you at breakfast Nino.
I will bring registration forms for those who still want to go.
No problem...they fixed it and it's their first show.

I am very surprised at your attitude about this show!! Whether you pre-register or not is not a huge deal, especially for a first time show. "There must be consequences" ... WOW!! Come on! Lighten up!!

Make sure the organizers are aware of the problem so that it is not repeated.

It appears the folks in our group will be attending the show; they are good people. I will not be attending.

I am who I am.

This was posted a few minutes ago on Facebook:

"Hello Corvette Fans: Pre-Registration is over for the show. If you did not pre-register and come to the show, We will do our best to get you in."

So I might go down there and find myself turned away. That would be a huge turnoff for me to come to any other events in the future. I'll give it a try but I hope it doesn't turn out to be my one and only time.

ps: They need a better way of registering for these events. It's kind of clumsy and old fashioned.

WOW Who are these guys? Car shows are 'the more the better'
not "we'll do our best to get you in" You guys were doing them a favor by even going.

I agree with Nino.

Who's putting this on the "too many rules Corvette club"

I had to leave at noon, but, for a first show, it went pretty well.
A lot of beautiful Vette's and nice people. Thank you to the Western MA Corvette Club and Balise Chevrolet.

I think at one point there was maybe close to 100 cars there? I was digging those C7 Callaway cars. Those were the bees knees. I had a great time. It all went well.
