ZR-1 Get Togethers
 

Hello enthusiasts!

We (the Board) want to encourage ZR-1 related events
centered around the car, but all about the people. Over
the years I have learned that ZR-1 owners are pretty
unique in our enthusiasm, community, and dedication.

We talked about publicizing local GTG's. For example,
I wished I lived near WAZOO Or FBI land (OK, not really,
with the weather there) where an LT5 pull is all in a day's work.

Who knows, if you gather enough participation and growth,
you can be appointed a REGION CHAIRPERSON! WOW!
Another possibility is to piggyback along with another event
such as a race or show.

Let me know well in advance of any events and we'll see
what we can do. Thanks!

Hi Ted,

What can these events be?

Mod/Maintenance Day? Being Car-centric

Or Luncheon/Dinner Gathering people-centric

Or a combination of both?

Re: ZR-1 Get Togethers
 

Jeff, Just to give you an idea we would like to combine events so we can get a greater participation rate. Here is an idea of what we are trying to create.
Ken Lingenfelter Museum of Friday, Drive from Kens museum to the Mackinaw bridge stay overnight, Saturday sightseeing on the island and a drive to Chicago, Sunday Mark H BBQ.

Hey Jeff!

To answer your question, any and all and more!
The goal is for ZR-1 people to have fun and socialize,
either for pizza or wrenching, or week long drives.
Whatever y a'll want to do.

Some Z owners are waxers. Fine, car shows are great.
Some are travelers (& have the time) so overnighters/
drives are great.
Some are (wannabe?) racers, so events like autocross,
Mile or 1/2 mile pulls, road racing, drags are wonderful.
Some want to learn maintenance or building so garage
gatherings are popular.
Whatever floats your boat, I'm sure there are others
with similar interests.

Hi Jeff,
that is why I started an event with the help of my friends, BAMA-Q.

Tony, I hope to drive a ZR-1 Convertible to your event one day!

Re: ZR-1 Get Togethers
 

Cool, would love to see that at my shop. Everyone would love it.

Re: ZR-1 Get Togethers
 

So....Now that I have legit place with 5000 sq feet, 3 lifts, A chassis dyno, and ample parking for over 150 cars as well as a 1/4 acre of grass area(BBQ, Sumo ring,ect :)..........I am picking up the torch where others have layed it down........

We are announcing that we will begin this year with the first annual ZR1 BBQ/Gathering/Car Show.

The shop is 9 miles from the new Dominion Raceway and I am trying to set up dates for us to get the cars on the track, so I would like to have this BBQ coinside with that..

The date will be posted once I get good feel of what the best date is not to interfere with other posted events.

Please let.me.know either privatley or here to what you would like to see and what your opinions are on a date...

As long as I have a shop.....this will.be an annual event!!
