Default Custom corvette show

It would be so awesome to hold a car event with all the members here to bring out their custom corvette. Donations to the forum to hold such a thing???? With a track and strip that would be so awesome I think!!!!!

Pahrump NV about and hour or so out of vegas has a track specifically for Vettes. You could either have the show there or in LV and do a road trip to the track for some fun driving. The road to Pahrump from LV is the same road that the Koenigsegg Agera RS set the speed record of over 280 mph on a public road with a factory stock car.

In the past, Bowling Green hosted a big C5 weekend, for the CorvetteForum. Any of the older members remember those events?

I participate in shows at the Museum and the Assembly Plant 2 or 3 times a year, and they’re always good car shows. It’s nice living less than 2 hours away.

It would be very cool to have a show with forum members, both for the show and to meet each other.

My son and I always complain that it seems like all the best corvette shows and gatherings are back east. It would be great to have one closer, count us in if that's the case.

I wonder the moderators of the site could provide this thread across the forum categories. We can determine a date sometime. If we want it guys and gals we need to make some noise!!!
