in years past the Forum members always met for a group photo at the Grandstand, any thoughts of organizing this for 2017?

Can't make it this year which makes me a little sad since its my first year with a vette. Will be making plans to do it next year. Maybe we can organize some kind of forum name tag that everyone can order, with your forum name and the section you most frequent? Would be a cool idea.

I like it, but I just don't have the guts to do it. Your car silver or pewter? Silver goes with more colors IMO. I have gotten into wrapping at the beginner level. I made those stripes you saw. I'm heavy into 'making it mine my own way', so I have been getting vinyl samples of all types to fool with.
There's so much out there, I don't want to go with stock/typical colors.
My CF on my radio bezel is lifting and 3m recommended replace rather than fight with it, so I'm changing, going for a color shift probably. I really get a kick out of those. I'm leaning to the brown metallic family, to go with my leatherwork's stitching.

Still looking for a PDF download of the event program - made another post on their FB page we'll see if I get any response. Also need to find a local place to watch the Mayweather-McGregor "fight" on Sat night....

I'm looking forward to it. This picture was taken by a buddy of mine following me on the way to the Fairgrounds. Probably in the 1980's. Still have the 61. 1,000 mile round trip from Cape Cod.

Disappointed that no one took up the offer to adopt me for the weekend.

I'm very well tempered, potty trained, and I no longer chew on furniture since I got my wisdom teeth out.
