Re: Gathering 2022
Made it home okay. Thanks to Bob, Mark, and Dennis for all their work in making BG possible this year, but most of all thanks to the team led by Jim (WAZOO) that turned a nightmare into an amazing experience.
After a smooth 10 hour ride to get to BG on Wed, the car developed a serious engine problem the next morning which turned out to be two dead primary fuel injectors. On Saturday under the leadership and technical knowledge of Jim (Maryland), with team members Paul (Missouri), Steve (New Hampshire) , Charlie (Maryland), Matt (Germany), Ernie (Georgia) and myself. We were able to finally get two new fuel injectors installed under less-than-ideal working conditions. The car made the 10 hour trip back to Maryland easily. Also Thanks to all who provided support. This is what makes the ZR-1 group the best in the Corvette world !!!THANKS!!!

Re: Gathering 2022
This was also the first Gathering I'd been able to make and wow. Was great meeting so many in our ZR-1 group and many spouses, swapping stories, receiving driving tips on the track, and plenty of laughs. Thanks to all (Mark, Bob, Dennis, others) who organized and led this!
dandt67 - what a classic story and photo of the kind of folks we have! A few pics...

I've seen Gordon do this out in the parking lot during one of the Gatherings. The guy had 6 of the fuel injectors go bad on him and a guy that I knew had a complete set of injectors with him as he had attended the ZR-1 school that Gordon ran before the Gathering and he3 changed them out because he could. The injectors were perfectly ok. You had ther A Team there that day. Roy
