OK, as Paul Harvey would say "and now for the Rest of the Story" I 'm standing in the C3VR booth looking at stiletto heels.....Shocked and someone says "heh did you hear."....
I turned and said "sorry Adam were you saying something?"
 
Yeah Adam says I heard an announcement about a photo of the C3 group will be taken in front of the Stage at noon. I said well it's 5 of noon i'll go check it out.
I go to the stage and run into Isaac Baker from Corvette America, he said he was in the Corvette America tent and his boss heard the announcement and told him go get that shot!
 
I go ask the anouncer dude about the photo and he said it's at noon, I said it's noon now. I call over to our C3VR parking area and tell the group to come on down they want our picture!
 
Soooo do you know that there is actually a C3 forum (club)....well they showed up, as I'm talking to Isaac.
 
The actual Carlisle photog never showed up! Isaac took their group photo, and as we waited for all are members to show Isaac waited with us. I told him we had toured his facilitys the year before.
So once again Corvette America comes through!
I'd like to thank Isaac Baker for taking a real great, kewl group photo for us!

Since it was not for us, or about us, I'd say so....we (well I ) just sort of barged in I think you'd say.
So no, there was not advanced notice, if it was planned we for sure would have had the C3VR banner with us.
So next year we'll plan it!
 
I think we can photo shop both you and Barry laying down in front on a light Blue Bear Skin rug if you'd like...... LOL
