We had a total of four cars, and even though the turnout was small, I had a fun time! There was one new Grand Sport that was absolutely gorgeous. We received several comments from passers-by on how gorgeous the cars looked parked together, which was flattering.

Two fellas were avid track rats like me so we had a good discussion about tracks and the track community. It's such a small world, it's almost shocking how 'everybody knows everybody'. I put the Asian Le Mans race up (did not know there even was such a thing), and we also watched each other's various track videos.

One fellow with a black 2016 (I'm terrible with names!) was interested in getting on the track, so hopefully we can help encourage him to take that step.

Someone suggested doing this monthly, and I will create a recurring event. Also suggested I reach out to the RTP Corvette Club to reach more local Corvette owners.

Thanks to all who made the trip out today!

We were talking about the upcoming PCA DE at VIR later this month.

I just confirmed & will be running in the white group.

Cool, I ran with PCA at the Glen/Pocono/NJMSP and VIR when I lived in Jersey. Now that I'm down here in NC I look forward to attending your meets and running VIR again.
