2017 NCM Bash
Just a few notes on the bash
One of the largest crowds lately - really good show. Spent money with APSIS, WindRestrictor and Adams
Big shout out to Richard with Adams. He showed some great products and gave good (and needed) advice. Gotta say, the Wheel cleaner is awesome! My wheels had dust from the 800 mile drive up and 5 sessions on the NCM track (which is awesome, by the way) and I sprayed on and hosed off and they were clean. Many claim but this stuff delivers.
Most of the cars were C7 (expected) but I was surprised the I saw as many Z06 as regular C7 and there was also a goodly number of CG cars. There was only one other 60th 427 Vert besides mine and one yellow one.
Spent some time at the Calloway tent with Chris and Ben (Gentle Ben) The new Calloway 757 cars are just WOW. It was all I could do to not buy one on the spot (if I had the dough!)

I was there Friday. It was pretty cool, but seemed like not a lot "going on". We did a plant tour, then the museum while the weather was iffy. By the time we finished that, crowds had dwindled due to impending weather.
The carbon 65 was cool. I was unimpressed with most of the other cars there. Nothing else really screamed out at me as being amazing. I got to see the 20k mile callaway c6, and the aero wagon so that was cool I guess.
My suggestion for next year is to have booth babes. And more booths.
