It looked like you all had a great time. I met Reeves and Chris a couple of years ago, I still have several Callaway twin turbos. It is always nice to spend time with family and friends. Enjoy every minute you can.

I wish I could have but I was helping a friend. I had my priority's right...I think.

On another note, I am a huge fan of those pics you took with a real model in front of what I presume is your JSB Corvette. Great Photo's. Thanks for sharing them!

Just about every one complains about this. It's just wrong putting a cheesy promo badge on such a high-end vehicle.

You would think that the dealer would finally listen to the majority and stop doing this!! It will not only be in good taste, but in good business as well.

I figured the badge crowd would love it.

I was searching for some stuff online and came across this old thread - Pretty interesting that you went from admiring the Callaways to being the largest stocking Callaway Dealer in only a matter of two years

One pretty interesting fact about Mike Furman I learned, he was a part of the former Malcom Konner Chevrolet in NJ back in the 80s. During this time, he and his team sold MORE Callaway Corvettes than ANY other dealer!

Mike, you are serious about Callaway sales and we appreciate that! Congrats on your accolades, past and present

Default OK, here is the deal...

I don't get how people aren't supposed to revive any thread over 45 days and yet they are there to be opened...and are constantly. Why not LOCK every thread over 45 days old? Is that too hard to do?

they still shouldn't put stickers on the back of high end vehicles like corvettes. put a license plate frame on instead.

!! I looked for dealers that respect cars . . . no stickers on their stock cars . . . and I always make it a point to remind the dealer NOT to ding my cars with their advertising and leave the stickers off. It has killed the relationship with some that can't listen.

The first thing that I do is pull the dealer sticker, not just on Corvettes but on any vehicle.
