I had psoted pic's under previous Skykomish thread but figured most would over look because it is an older thread. Here are shots of the C3VR members and their Vettes. There we a total of 5 of us from C3VR 1BadLT1, Cilrah, Corvette427, C3rvette, and me Suncountry. I missed getting a picture of C3rvette's ride because he ended up in a different area. We all had a great time getting to spend the day together. This forum is great! Larry and I brought our wives who also had a great time. My wife likes to here the stories behind the cars so if you walk with her, plan on taking all day and then some at the small shows.

I personally like the shot of Larry and Mark with their winnings. It took a little work to get Mark to pose with that fancy vest he won.

Enjoy

Sorry Mark I could not resist. It was the only picture I had of you with you first place trophy for the Corvette class. Looking forward to doing another show with the NW C3VR gang. Moses Lake has a car show in the spring which is a lot of fun. Its part of the town's Spring Festival. We had just over 200 cars this spring and only 4 Vettes.  I will post it when it gets closer.

It was a great time.  When I got home I discovered I had a big time sunburn.  I look like a raccoon, as I had sunglasses on all day!  We gotta do this again!  Next time I bring suntan lotion.

Mark I am with you on the suntan lotion. I cooked my nose and it's still a little sore.

Larry, my family and I will be spending a week at Ocean Shores the last week of June. If your around lets get our famlies together. I will have 4 kayaks with me so we can do some paddling in the local lakes. That is if you can handle the lack of HP.

I look forward to your pic's

You guy arn't kidding about the sunburn   I'm fried also   

Now I'll let the cat outta the bag.  The Vette ran awsome all the way there and all the way back.  I did get a room in Issaquah for the All Corvette show the next day (affraid of returning in the rain).  But, I went home for a change of clothes. Stopped at Ft Lewis for some cheap petrol ($2.77 premium) while leaving the gas station the transmission slipped really bad twice  then went about 1/4 and lost all power in 3rd gear   I stopped at the main gate and checked the fluid, looked fine, didn't smell burnt, I let the car cool down and tried a lap around the parking lot. It ran fine until it shifted into 3rd and lost all power again   I had to drive home 20 miles in 2nd at like 35mph.  Good news is, its covered by the warrentee I bought with the Vette

I ended up driving back up to Issaquah in my truck for the show and to get my stuff outta the Motel 6   I wasn't too upset about missing the show until I saw that there wasn't one 78 Pace Car there.

I was really glad it crapped out at Ft Lewis (20 miles from home) as aposed to Skykomish (140 miles from home). 

Good Boy, Good Boy
