Default The PNW 2015 Z06 "Open Shop" is still planned for Sunday January 4th 2-4PM!

Happy New Year to all! As requested earlier I will be hosting and "open shop" for any local enthusiasts interested in having a first hand look and listen to the new 2015 Z06 in person! I plan to have some pizza and beverages available just to have a great time reviewing our passions when it comes to Chevrolet's finest offering for 2015! Not sure what the weather plans to do (60% chance of rain) but it won't matter, we'll still have a great time for those interested in coming out! Please PM for an address and phone # if you plan to attend so that I can get a rough idea of how many people plan to come out!

Wish I could join you all, but have a prior engagement on Sunday afternoon that I can't miss. I just got my Z on Monday this week (SG Z07). What a fantastic car! Still learning all the bells and whistles. Very excited to get through the break-in and get it on the track soon!

You'll have to let me know if you're planning any future gatherings, as I'd love to get together and meet everyone!

Sunny on Saturday with rain on Sunday. Would be good to see the C7 z06 up close and personal. I'll miss out this time, but look forward to a gathering this spring sometime.

Take pics and post 'em here, please!

You're welcome and we were very happy to have everyone over that came out! It was great to meet with a bunch of fellow enthusiasts!
Take pics and post 'em here, please!
I had to switch tops after everyone left and snapped this pic as a reminder how cool these cars look topless!!!

Thanks JT for taking the rest of the pizza home to your kids so that I didn't have to eat more than I needed to!

It was great meeting you, JMB, and seeing other Corvette buddies from Tacoma Corvettes and Aaron as well. Thanks for opening up your garage and showing us that beautiful Z-car of yours.
