Got to spend some time looking at Tim's Corvette and talking with him and Bill W. Had a good day down there. Bought some donation books I don't need and Tim bid on a set of 4 vanity plates for me.
OMG, are there some nicely restored cars there...Corvette fever meter went nuts. Still don't know that I would ever buy one, but I sure would like one...does that make sense ??

Sounds like you had a great time!

I didn't see your green car in the picture recap of the event on the NCRS site, but I heard Bob Demmel judged your exterior yesterday. He commented on both you and the car saying both were wonderful. I'm sure you did well, Tim. We took a two-week trip for my wife's birthday, or I would have been at Bloomington.

Here's one for you Tim! I have a commitment today (Saturday) but on Friday brought along two of my best friends who are C1, C2 and C3 owners. Met up with friends old and new, great time! 77 cars, wow! - Bill W

Thank you, Bill. That's lots of cars, I'm glad it is a successful Regional.

This weekend resulted in an NCRS Regional Top Flight, the Bowtie sign off in all 4 areas, and thus now qualified for the NCRS National meet in July. At that point, the car will be judged for the Star / Bowtie Award. For those who are not familiar with the NCRS Star / Bowtie program, click this link below

With the Top Flight this weekend (in addition to last weeks Gold / Benchmark), the car is now qualified for the MCACN Triple Diamond award. The car is also signed up in Vintage Certification at this years MCACN show.

Certainly getting some windshield time as of late!

All the judges have been a pleasure to talk to, in addition to being a wealth a knowledge. The theory of "keep your mouth shut and ears open" applies

Tim, you're really knocking out the awards with the 1970 Corvette. I can't wait to see it.
