NCR convention
I went to the National Corvette Restoration Convention Show in Windsor Ont. Canada this week.
The members were rude. They would not wave, speak, unless you spoke first or even nod their heads!!!
I sent email to them telling of my expierience, but they responded with disbelief and a silly excuse.
Iam sure glad this does not happen with the Corvette Forum.

They probably knew you were a C5 owner and didn't want to waste their time with you knowing you are driving the BEST Corvette ever. Most of them with their old suspensions, 8mpg, and inferiority complex don't understand that all of us C5 owners want to carry on the tradition. Oh well I know I am glad to be a part of this forum.

Come on guys, I'm sure they can't be all bad. My own experience with the NCRS people has been very good. They were a very major help while I was restoring my 75. I'm sure what you may have experienced is just a few bad apples in a basket full of good ones. I would be quite certain their interests are more in the older cars then the new ones, but that's no excuse to be rude, especially if you were there because of your interest in the older cars as well.

But what gets me is when you tell someone how you were treated people come up with excuses.
I was not the only one who found this to be true but I seem to be the only one reporting it on this forum!
I dont deny that they helped you and some or most are good.
But dont deny what I say when you were not there to see.
