Default Ncrs show

The NCRS ( national corvette restorers society) has opened up membership and shows to all generations. We were asked and joined when at the Corvette Expo in Piegon Forge. Wemt to one of their shows this weekend in Greenville SC. It was a very good experience did well and learned some stuff Both of the cars our C7 and C8 won Emerald awards, the highest awards in the open class. It was a two day show with 2 judges for every category. So you had 10 judges look at your car operations. chassis, mechanical, interior and exterior. If you want a more in depth show to participate in sortal similar ti NCCC but different

The NCRS recently started an open class for any year Corvette to increase attendance & participation at their events....of course any C8 would score well as they are a currently built car

Jim,

Thanks for attending and Thanks for sharing your experience. All of us at NCRS appreciate your cars and the work you have done on them.

I did receive a note from one of the judges that participated in judging your car. They were over the top regarding the work and detail involved in your cars. I think they all would love to see your cars at this year's National Convention in Charleston, SC.

Thanks again, Joe
