Corvette Show in Florida
I went to the annual Dimmitt Chevrolet Corvette show put on by the Bay Are Corvette Club yesterday. This is my forth year attending and Bay Area always does a top notch job. Here are a bunch of pictures for yesterday. I am sorry for some of the shots as they are a little grainy. I had the camera on the wrong setting (getting old).
These first few pictures are of my '01 coupe. I was surprised to hear my name called for the second place award in the custom class. There were some great looking cars in that class. A special thanks to Pat at American Hydrocarbons for the engine bay pieces. I did receive a lot of comments on them.
Here are some more pictures of the overall show.
Now here is something that you don't see to often at a Corvette Show, three Ferrari's stopped by. The matching red ones belong to a husband and wife and I under stand the also have a new ZR1. Must be a tough life.

Very nice! Thanks for sharing. I was hoping to make it to the show with some club members, however I had a date with my lawn/landscaping.
What defined their "custom class"? Your C5 looks pretty stock.

They have a points system for modification to the body as well as engine bay. I have an SLP rear spoiler and an ACI front splitter along with C6 Z06 wheels. Then my engine bay is totally dressed with carbon fiber, painted FRC's and tank covers.
