I would love to be all over the world promoting C3VR to every C3 enthusiast out there, but I simply can not do that.  With so many of you spread out all over the country (and the world), I would like to ask all of you to please help spread the word about us. 

Here's how you can help:
  • Spread the word about C3VR at shows or in your local club.  THIS IS THE NUMBER ONE WAY TO GET NEW MEMBERS! There are fliers that you can print out and take with you to shows. You can pass them out, drop them into C3s, and talk about C3VR to any C3 owner there.   NewMemberInfo200706.pdf (1 side, info only) or C3VRNewMemberRegistration200706.pdf (2 sided, info + registration form).  If you don't want to print them yourself, I will be more than happy to send you some.  Just PM me with a request and I'll get them to you ASAP! 
  • Spread the word on Facebook, twitter, etc.  Share links to C3VR's home page or individual interesting posts. 
  • Be creative.  Any way that you can spread the word about C3VR will be great.  
Here are some other ways you can support C3VR:
  • Shop ebay via the C3 eBay Parts Directory here on C3VR.  By using this directory, any parts you buy will generate income for C3VR. You can find it on the Shop menu.
  • Shop Amazon via the link on C3VR.  As you know, you can find almost ANYTHING on Amazon.com.  So, since you're probably already shopping there, click through via the link here on C3VR and C3VR will earn commission on your purchases. You can find this link on the Shop menu.  Also, after you click it, set a bookmark for it. Then every time you shop Amazon, just remember to use your bookmark to get there instead of typing in Amazon.com in your address bar.
  • Buy C3VR Apparel & Accessories. You get some great looking apparel bearing your favorite club's name, and C3VR gets a percentage of the sale price. You can findthe link on the Shop menu.
  • Buy Corvette Apparel & Accessories from CorvetteClothing.com.  CorvetteClothing.com is run by me. It is a directory of all things Corvette on Amazon.com. Using the directory there to purchase items from Amazon will generate commission for C3VR.
  • Shop our Sponsors.  Make sure you tell them we sent you. Some, like Bair's, offer a discount to our members.  The more you support them, the more they will continue to support C3VR. Just click their banners found throughout the site.
Thank you for your continuing support of C3VR!!

I'm printing some new member info/registration forms as we speak to take with us to the Big Cypress Corvette Classic tomorrow in Jefferson, Texas. (Although we're not taking our C3, just the C5)

If you're in the ARK/LA/OK/TX area, the show is Saturday, June 2, 2012, in downtown Jefferson, Texas. I believe it's their 2nd year and this will be our first to attend.

I plugged you guys on the NCOA C3 group today.

Hope that will drum up some business.
I have been meaning to track down the local Corvette club and I guess this would be a good reason to get off my duff and see if there are any other C3'ers out there

Some of you mentioned keeping a stack of flyers in your car glove box and putting them on windshield at parking lots of a store.  (I've been doing that for years).  Just saw a C6 ZR1 today at Target and put a C6VR flyer on it. He signed up tonight.

So it does work!

Thanks for spreading the word!

I entered the YMCA car show today and passed out 3 C3VR flyers to entrants with Vettes.  Hopefully we'll get some responses, sure would like to see a lot more members from here in Wichita.
