Default First Show = First Place!

This past Sunday we entered our '04 Z06 in its very first competitive show at the “Wheels in Motion 2007 Corvette Show” in Florham Park, NJ. After what was described as a very close contest, we won First in Class! A major thrill, to say the least.

We would like to thank Dave & the members of the Natural Glass Corvette Association, Schumacher Chevrolet in Little Falls, NJ & all of the sponsors, for putting on such an excellent event!

And of course, I would also like to thank Mrs champ53, who now understands why I can spend countless hours in the garage. Thanks again Hun!

Jules
