I just saw a picture of your new Corvette. It looks great. If you don't like having your car judged, you can check the appropriate box on the registration form, display your Corvette in the show and it won't be judged.

Hi,

Sorry nobody has answered your question about classes. I'm no expert but Stock is defined as 'as left the factory' which means that dealer installed extras are not stock. There are some exceptions such as licensed plates (dealer installed).

It doesn't take much to change Stock to Modified:
Wrap
Installed bra. Bra attachment mechanism without bra is OK.
CB antenna. Antenna bracket without antenna is OK.

Grand Slam is correct.

For Custom:

Custom Entry Requirements; any two or more from the list.
1. Flared Fenders
2. Multi-colored non-stock paint
3. Substantially changed interior
4. Molded in changes such as non-stock spoiler or air dam.
5. Ground effects kit
6. Wing
7. Non stock hood.

Some of us find it easier to enter Park & Show. The awards are the same, and you don't have to clean the engine.

I am going to show up on Sunday morning early. Please save me a spot. 2016 Z06. Do you have sections by generations?

Thanks,

Mike

If you're want to show your car there is still time to pre-register which helps us with registration. We expect to have room for all cars so don't be afraid to show up at the last minute.

Information and flyer / registration form: http://sccorvettes.org/corvette-spectacular/ or contact Robert Kuwada at rkuwada@sbcglobal.net or (408) 219-5854 or Cliff Martin at dervet07@gmail.com or (408) 688-6449.

See you there!

Parking is not segregated by generation, class, etc. It is in order of arrival so we can maximize use of the street. If you want to be with others, enter the show with them.

What time do people typically show up? 1 hour, 2 hours early? Does it matter since you just line the cars up first come first serve?

Registration is from 8 AM to 11 AM but some people will be there at the crack of dawn to start cleaning their cars. Rags Down (stop cleaning) is at 11 AM.

If you want to show your car but not be judged you can do that, too. But you still have to pay the full registration.

We still have room so don't be afraid to come even if you haven't pre-registered.

Los Altos is predicted to have a high of 77 so it will be really nice weather.

I think this year's Spectacular was a great show. Good weather, the Derek Abel Band and some beautiful Corvettes.

On display at the show was one of the original five Grand Sports. Four years ago a Grand Sport was valued at between 6 and 8 million dollars.
