Well, we had a small turnout, but it was fun nonetheless!
The car show was quite a spectacle.
This one was my favorite.

Lunch was nice.

And go-karts (especially the upgrade to Pro), was a lot of fun!

Thanks to those that came out!

Sorry we missed a few that were supposed to come but didn't make it.

Sorry Jeff and Robin(?) had to leave before Karts!

I echo Adam, it was a blast! The car show was huge and took Hank and I forever to grt through! (we have to go over each car and we talked to a lot of the owners). You really see the difference in the go-karts when you drive the regular ones first, then the pro karts! Lunch was great and it was nice to meet another member, Jeff and Robin (Frobate). Now if we can get him to come to some events! And its always nice to see Barb and Frank! Get well wishes for Dan (danascar), hope you feel better!

My sentiments exactly Thumbs Up - Although there weren't many of us, we had a great time (Thanks to Dan's planning!).  Dan - I hope you are feeling better, so sorry you couldn't make it - you were definitely missed, as well were Dave & Nadine.

Sounds like you guys had fun. Sorry we didn't make it. It's always fun to get together with C3VR people. Maybe we can get together again before May, if not we'll see you then!

Feeling somewhat better today. I have to say a good part of the credit for this get together goes to Adam. He researched the lunch and karts.
Wish I could have been there Exclamation
Sure would like to get together again before Gathering but time will be tight for me until then. Lots of work to do on the car plus a couple of short trips. If anything comes up close and quick I may be game but otherwise...work, work, work Ermm

Yeah, Dan, it's just so tough being retired and having to go on all those fishing trips and having to work on the Vette! I'm so jealous!   LOL

Thank you Dan and Adam for putting this together, and big thank you to all who attended the lunch. It was great putting faces to names and I really enjoyed hearing the tales of C3 adventures and mis-adventures. I wish I would have been able to race the carts, I have heard that the pro model is a blast.

 

Anyway, I took Robin back home so she could get ready for work and I changed my clothes and tore into the vette. I was on a mission so right now, the transmission is out, hopefully gonna pull the engine this week. Prepped it to pull, everything is out but the power steering pump and motor mount bolts. Can't wait to pressure wash the skank off the compartment and tune that area up.

 
I wanna get her on the road and be able to attend more of the C3VR events.
