I'm a complete newbie to corvette forum (and vette ownership). Whats the get together about?
The get together allows you to meet other corvette owners. find out some cool info on vettes that you might not have known. Get some info on other local events and have some good food!!! :cheers: :cheers:
Velasco Jr. got his wings this weekend didn't he? I was on-track when he spun out, but never actually saw him "farming", however, I did see the video tape. When I first talked to him on Sat. morning, he let me know that he had the ORIGINAL brake pads on the car - AFTER TWO DAYS AT SUMMIT POINT LAST YEAR - at which point I confirmed that he wasn't driving the car to potential. However, after his little (minor) spin-out, I think that's all changed. Either way, I think he'll be bringing more brake pads and a change of underwear next time :lol:
I've got the Malibu night on the calendar, look forward to meeting you all - Rick

Yeah, I don't push the car to it limits expect for one time when I went into the turn to fast thinking I could turn at this point. Live and learn. :D The spin allowed me to get several pounds of soil and grass samples. I will run the normal soil tests and recommend fertilizer and the proper seed to fix those areas around the track.
Yes, I am still on the original brake pads, with 8 auto-xes, 2 days at summit point and 2 days at VIR and 15k miles. The last day at VIR the pedal had more travel but on the way home that extra travel disappeared. I am guessing I really over heated the stock pads. Glazed them?? I think that is what you call it. going to get some PF pads later next month...
negatory. it will be just me. the Mrs has class that night. She is a physical therapist and just got her cert massage. life is good at the Kreigh house!!! if any of you guys/gals (no funny buzness) are looking for a nice massage, Maggie is your gal!!! she works cheap and you will think you have died and gone to heaven.
put me down for ONE only and thanks for the info. maggie will graduate in march and will be able to tag along then.
I have put it on the calender and will try to make it... says it will be cold with a chance for flurries.... may have to take the alternate car wannabee......Just me and one of my young uns...
I'm a little late:rolleyes: but *89x2* emailed me about this and I'd like to join you all along with my wife. I'm always looking for any excuse to get out and meet more Vette folks. If I'm too late to sqeeze in, no problem, I'll pay closer attention next time.
