WOW!!! What a fun weekend. A big THANK YOU to Bob, Tom and the whole Vettefest crew for making it all possible. To show how professional they are, Friday’s move-in had a few glitches, so most of us out of towners were dreading Sunday evening’s move out. Boy, were we in for a surprise, as everything went as smooth as silk. Great job guys!!
![]() Steve and the guys at Nickey Chicago deserve a big THANK YOU as well, for what they do to help with the show, including displaying some really neat cars. Always neat to visit with former employees of Nickey, and everyone’s favorite TV star, Dennis Gage from My Classic Car. Thanks!!! ![]() What a turnout of sYc cars, with 40+. Show goers were blown away by not only the number of cars, but also the quality. Club members took home two Top Guns, at least one Triple Crown plus several Gold and Silver Spinners. ![]() To top it off, the sYc was awarded the Outstanding Display award. Thanks to all who showed a car(s) in one of our displays, with a special thank you to Helen Gibb, Ken Barnhart and the SCW for adding something a little extra. ![]() In conclusion, there is one more person I need to acknowledge, the late Dennis Hartweg. Having a club display at each Chevy/Vettefest, featuring “dealer prepped” cars was his idea. The sYc is only doing our best to keep his dream alive. Because Dennis was so into Gibb cars, I thought it was fitting that one of Dennis’ cars, Tommy K’s Gibb/Harrell Nova, as well as the “First Lady of the Supercar World”, Helen Gibb and her Nova, were featured in the Vettefest media guide and were front and center at the show. Even though Dennis is no longer with us, his spirit and love for the supercar hobby will always live on within the sYc.

One of the special displays, and I believe a Triple Crown award for the Corvette.

Yes, I forgot to thank the Nickey boys. Thanks for bringing that great '65 Corvette, it's keeping me awake nights.
