Corvette Forum Registration Now Live
 

If you are fun loving and enjoy camaraderie then the Corvette Forum Cruise-In is the event for you!  We've added a new road tour to our repertory - a trip to Nashville's CAO Cigar Manufacturing for a tour, sampling and lunch. Other favorite road tours will take you to Heaven Hill Bourbon Heritage Center, the Coca Cola Museum, Barren River and the General Jackson Cruise.

Seminars on preparing and detailing your Corvette, the NCM Motorsports Park, insuring special and collector cars, an introduction of new GM Bowling Green Assembly Plant Manager Bob Parcell and a walk around of the 2011 Corvette will keep you informed.  Gordon Killebrew will be on hand with his 'Drive Through Troubleshooting' while other on-site activities include a Scavenger Hunt, Peoples Choice Car Show, Silent and Live Auctions, and Golf Cart Autocross.

A free scenic guided road tour, gimmick rally, poker run and autocross round out this event. The event is scheduled for May 27 - 29, 2010 and registration is LIVE on our website!

Al and Nancy Jones of Tyler, Texas have just committed to joining the NCM Motorsports Park's 'One Acre Club.'

"We participate in as much as we can at museum.   We love it and the people there so if we are able to participate we do so," said Al. "Nancy and I find the Motorsports Park concept exciting and hope to see the day when it is complete and running."

Al and Nancy are members of the Lone Star Corvette Club and are lifetime members of museum. They also sponsored one of the new NCM delivery rooms which was unveiled at the 15th Anniversary Celebration.

Al adds that "we support the project and would encourage everyone that belongs to the NCM to make a donation, no matter how small or large, to this important project."
