Code = ZR4

"If you’ve ever wanted to know what made the Corvette so fast, and how it absolutely dominated the SCCA’s
Playboy and Escort Endurance Series, as well as in IMSA and World Challenge, here’s your chance to talk to
the folks who made it all happen. In fact, we plan to have an actual World Challenge C4 Corvette available,
and see what it’s like to be strapped into a full-up historic race car—so don’t forget your camera as you wont want
to miss this opportunity! If all of this wasn’t enough, you’ll have a rare opportunity to see one of the finest collections
of Callaway LeMans race cars, LT5 Super Speedsters, and the legendary 254.76 MPH Sledge-hammer Callaway Corvette.
As you become intoxicated with racing gas and the smell of rubber, we’re going to provide a Motorsports Park Orientation,
as well as a high-speed driving class to get your driving skills in order, then let you loose on the Motorsports Park Track itself.
If you’ve been to a prior Gathering, no introduction is needed; if not, you’re in for a ride! We have touring lap groups
for every skill and comfort level, from beginner to intermediate, and advanced drivers.
And new for added fun: GO KARTS at the MotorSports Track!
Register for this exciting time now on the NCM Website.
Time to Get Revved Up....As We’re About to Have Some Fun"

If I find a car by then, maybe I'll see you there, Ted.

It's a buyers market right now, Ted. I'm going to try to take advantage of it, if possible.

I'm signed up for the go kart races, prepare to be embarrassed, or most likely prepare to see me embarrass myself !

Ted,

I'm reconsidering the go-kart event. Will it be possible to sign up at BG?

If you're speaking of racing, I see no mention of Drag Racing, which is the only type of racing that most ZR-1 owners do, or that their cars are equipped for.

Fewer ZR drivers are willing to risk breaking their cars these days, especially when it comes to body parts. Beech Bend isn't exactly begging us for the business either. There are usually other sanctioned events going on contemporaneous w our Gathering.

If we don't drive them to their limikts what is the point, car was made to go and go and go , I realize these cars are getting older and parts are costly but it's just that damn good.
