Default Quebec events? Ontario?

Hi folks, is there any Corvette QC events during the summer usually? Dont see many vettes in qc overall the community doesnt seem too big, any meetings you guys attend etc? Dont know about any qc corvette club either i think there is none? Would be nice to meet some fellow vetters. What about Ontario? I wouldnt mind driving up there for some events, if there is any? Btw Im from Sherbrooke if there is any fellow quebecois

When I first got my Vette, the wife and I took it all the way to Perce and through the Gaspesie. It was a fabulous trip and we had a great time. I tried to get some general info from another forum that is Canada focused and has a Quebec section, but I got no reply. In fact there seems to be no activity in the QC section. Unfortunately I would say that there is not real QC community on these forums... maybe a french forum?!? Like you I did not see any Vettes in QC except for one in Montreal... and the owner and I did exchange a wave. I will say that the car got tonnes of attention and was a great icebreaker for starting conversations with local folks.

Gaspesie is a nice region to visit for sure. Yeah well i did search a lot about qc vette community and couldnt find anything thats why im wondering is there really none or what. Maybe the few owners there is are spread over these forums here, since I couldnt find any other forums dedicated exclusely for qc owners. You really dont see vettes very often around here, as you said, where ur most likely to see some is @ mtl, and even there its not something you see THAT often.

Have you tried these sites? May not be specific to QC, but these are sites for Quebecers.

Yes I did, first one is a legit corvette club but with no forums that you can discuss with ppl and theyre only about 15members as I see. I see they organize events from time to time Ill definitely check that out next summer but its not a big community.

Second is a community from France

and third is a general forum for car addicts related to the Car Guide magazine.

Not a big vette scene in Quebec really, although there are more now that they are not expensive. There is a local club that has has some events. They gather Friday nights at a meet in laval but are not really performance oriented so its not for me.

There are only a few club in Quebec. Club passion corvette being an very active one, if i am not mistaking there is also one in Valleyfield and one in quebec city or around. Check on passion corvette web site. The 2017 schedule might not be there yet but it will tell you the main corvette show like the big one in Brossard (300+cars), see the pictures on there site. You can also send a email to. Denis Tremblay, the president of the club, i am surehe have way more infos for you

Hi... there's "Club Corvette Sting Ray du Québec Enr"... they are basically a C2 group, but welcome any other years as well... the president sends a monthly email of all upcoming activities/outings, etc... Local events, as well as events all over North America.
They list the weekly get togethers in several different locations.
There's a little extra information on the following site:
http://www.kijiji.ca/v-activites-gro...teLocale=en_CA

If you get on their distribution list, you'll get the monthly updates.

Send me a private message and I'll send you the president's email address so you can join the list.
