Vette(s): 78 White/Oyster all original. Purchased from original owner
Banister Racing......Typically a young persons sport....and for good reason......
 
The dismount is important.....if not done right......
 
 
If your going to hold Banister events, make sure you have plenty of medical staff.
 
Seriously, I want to thank everyone for the help and support.
 
Event log :  Marilyn got wound up anticipating the upcoming social gathering.
                   She broke your leg falling off the stair banister
                   C3VR medical staff came to the rescue
                   20 mile ride in the ambulance
                    A bunch of drugs and a hard pull, and the foot was back in place
                   
We go Monday to the Surgeon.. Will let you know more later

Tom, I'm so glad you got a picture.  While I was standing there observing the C3VR medical staff at work, I considered getting the camera and thought it might be in poor taste (later I was greatly disapointed I hadn't).

By the way, I'll also need copies of the X-rays for the photo collection I'll be putting together!  Smile




I wanted a Corvette my whole life, but I never dreamed of all the wonderful people I would meet because of it!

Marilyn,
Glad your home,  Let us know how it goes with the surgery.  Most importantly, make sure the good drugs have REFILLS.

and they thought the ZIP line was going to be dangerous ... add in the rear soaking on the Quack boats (me & Tux) and we had an eventful weekend.
 
ps - be sure to ask around about the various technical forums that were held ....

Trust me Joel, the picture does NOT do it justice.
