Default {RCG} - Time for a Change

Well folks…what can I say besides “It’s been Real”! I have been giving this a LOT of thought, and in light of events inside AND outside of the corvette world, I think it would be in everyone’s best interest if I step aside from RCG for awhile. I have met many good friends through RCG over the last 5 years or so, and have every intention of remaining in contact, but circumstances are inhibiting/preventing me from continuing as a “Front Guy”.

I’m not going to disappear off the face of the earth (I hope), so I’m sure I’ll see all of you at one event or another. Maybe at QS&L, maybe on a mountain cruise, or maybe at one of Nitro’s poker games…but right now this is best for RCG and me.

So whoever decides to pick up the leadership mantle…shoot me an email and I’ll get’cha the mailing lists and all the other stuff that goes with the crown.


See y'all around

I don't think we heard all the story. What's up? Is it about the race team we're forming? What or who upset the apple cart?

Sorry you guys quit. Stay in touch.

Oh, okay. I thought we lost you you there for a sec. Well, I figure we should have our meeting at the QS&L on the 10th of Dec at any cost. Do we need to do much to arrange the meeting there? WE NEED TO TALK THIS OUT It's too good a thing to let go of.

I'd say call them up after you figure out how many people are coming & have them block off some tables for you.

Hi Jim,

Sorry to hear you are having to step out of the RCG. I can still remember when we all met for the first time. It was great seeing those vettes lined up in the parking lot. Looks like the club has grown since then. I think we had about 5 or 6 vettes at the first gathering. Anyway, take care. I'll be moving to Asheville in April of next year. Hopefully you and Deb can cruise out to visit us. Can't wait to get Frankenvette out on the blue ridge parkway.

Jim
