I love these cars but I hate the vette only shows. There's only so long you can spend looking at the same cars over and over again. That said, sounds like a good cause. I hope you have a good turnout, OP

Well I appreciate that, but when you have over 60 years of evolution in a model it becomes near and dear to many people. Plus it's just good old American muscle and that draws in a bunch more. We previously, the last 6 years, had open registration to all makes and models and corvettes were always the biggest draw. Possibly because we are a corvette club and we go to other car shows and always see others we know from corvette clubs. So that combined with changing our venue and Casey Chevrolet being the biggest seller of corvettes locally it only made sense. We have a fall show in the works and that possibly will be open to all. It's all for charity, we keep nothing, just a bunch of people who like one particular make/model of car getting together and enjoying the festivity. Thanks
