I like the show and have been every year, but my biggest complaint is how the cars are parked. To be fair to all participants, the cars should be parked according to their category, such as C1 or C2 etc. or modified or custom. It makes it sooooo easy to vote when you can look up and down the rows and vote for that particular category, instead of roaming all over the grounds trying to remember what you've seen. I'm sure most voters just see a nice car in a particular category and vote for it, instead of looking at all the cars first, to be fair. People just get tired of roaming around and trying to vote on sooo many cars and that's not fair I've heard and seen people do that. I've heard that people like to park together and thats why the categories are so scattered, but Ocean City Md. show parks the cars in categories and it's very easy and enjoyable to vote. Three of us got there early last year and was parked all the way in the back and not many voters came back there probably because they already picked their cars up front. The voting is just frustrating! I'm done!

The Chip Show is about raising money for a good cause and showing our cars. The awards are a nice to have but not the driver of the show. I agree putting all the C1 C2 c3 etc together would be great but that park
Site does not lend itself well to segmenting cars by year

Hope you'll join the over 300 participants. More than 100 already registered in advance!

I registered for the show today. I just purchased a 25th anniversary Callaway, who would I contact to tell them I'm bringing the car to the show? I couldn't find any info on the web site or just missed it.

With a little less than a month to the event, all is looking in order for the Show. We look forward to another wonderful year for the 6th annual Corvettes for Chip show, benefitting the Chip Miller Charitable Foundation. With the proceeds from this years event going to the Charity, we will hit the $50,000.00 total donated mark, a wonderful testament to all of us in the Corvette World, the sponsors, spectators and everyone who is making this a very nice season ending show to attend. Please register today at www.corvettesforchip.com . Look forward to seeing everyone at the Show.
