Well so far it has been a crazy week and there is no end in sight.

Monday I spent the day at a Reception far south of Nashville hosted by the people that Product HP Tv, Trucks TV, Car and Driver, and Xtreme 4x4.  I had a chance to talk to Mike Galley of HP TV about their Corvette build up and he told me it was done, but said they are going to be bringing it back on the show for other modifications to make it more radical. 

Then on Tuesday, I attended the power tour stop in Nashville.  Wow, you should have seen how many corvettes that were on this years tour.  Way up from last year.  I have been a part of this tour since its inception and I can tell you when it first started Corvettes were non-existant.  Very few of these cars were stock.  Most were modified.  Mostly C3 and C4's.  I really believe our cars are starting to be accepted as a main street muscle car that can be hot rodded and is n longer considered a car only for the elite.  Which I would have had my camera handy.

On Friday we are conducting a tour for a Corvette event.  I wish I had more details, but ther is nothing on the corvette Museum website.  I know we are blocking off one of our parking lots for corvette parking.  Unfortunately I won't be there, because I have to do a technical seminar in Nashville for National Chevelle Association, ACES, at their event.

The May 31st edition of NCM eNews listed several Corvette clubs that would be visiting the NCM during the month of June.  A club named Corvette Cruisers is scheduled for June 10-12.
