Vette(s): Silver 1974 Convertible - L82 4 speed Low miles (was only 8,900 when I bought it in March 2006) - Now 54K miles. Original owner bought it as an investment for son's college expenses. 2008 Jetstream Blue Convertible

Now that we’re getting closer to the Caravan, I would like us to think more about getting together. At the last Caravan, I organized a group picture on Saturday. Back then we met in front of one of the new C8s. I would bet they’ll have plenty of C8s on display, maybe even a ZR1!

As Adam noted, with the Vette Registry booth, that will be a good spot to better coordinate time and place once we’re on site. I also plan to create an event on Facebook within the C3VR group. I know there are more members attending than listed here 

Looking forward to seeing everyone soon!




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

Vette(s): 1978 L48 Auto. Red with Oyster Leather interior. Owned since 1990.

I'm definitely hoping for a meet up with people from the C3VR!   (I have to meet Adam, he has a T-shirt for me!)

And Saturday does actually sound good.

We're flying in from France and will arrive at the NCM on Thursday AM.  We'll have to collect registration documents etc in the morning and we will be occupied all afternoon with track laps over at the Motorsports Park, and then the Dinner with Corvette Racing in the evening.

We have a Member Anniversary Ceremony at 9:00am on Friday and we'll be at the Hall of Fame induction on Saturday evening.  There are also a few other events on the agenda that I'd like to be at, but Saturday looks good except for Steve Garret's slot at 12:30.

It's going to be an interesting weekend, the first time back at the NCM for us since 2003, so a lot to catch up with, but a C3VR meet is high on the list!

I actually set it for Friday, but for now we can consider it a placeholder and see what works best for everyone!

Vette(s): 1972 LT-1 convertible with factory air. 2017 Black Rose Grand Sport convertible.

We are now going with our Corvette Legends club from DFW.  Staying in Cave City.  I've heard the first day at the museum is a zoo, but the second day is much better.  May road trip to Dayton to visit wife's relatives on the 30th.  Bringing the 2017 Black Rose GS.  Haven't a clue what our plans will be.

Sounds like a hoard of people and a lot of hurry up and wait.

Hi, I guess if you are a pilot, and had any Military Time, you are already acclimated to "Hurry up, and Wait". Enjoy the time, it was a zoo at my attendance. The cost and accommodations are what lessen the enthusiasm for the program.

I saw that, and we'll be there!  I was impressed that the C3VR has such a prime spot - good job!👍
