Sounds good.

This is a great show.

Lots of beautiful Vettes, good music and grub and that Corvette community!

Bring your cigars if you enjoy!

Great show, good to meet you all. Dave, sorry I fell behind on 91, she was getting a bit warm holding at 85, so I backed it down a bit. Runs at 3300 rpm at 85 with the 3:55 rear!

a71vette, great meeting you and congrats on your trophy.

Was a great day, hot as always @ Morosso but the Posse brought the hardware home.

Some shots from the day:

Good breakfast and another awesome show & shine put on by Club Corvette of CT. Thank you.
Lot's of beautiful Vettes, good food and vendors and, of course, the people. Congrats to everyone on the wins.
Nice meeting you Paco. Glad you could join us and congrats on the first-time win. Check your speedometer. Never got much above the posted speed limit. Maybe a cooler 'stat will help your overheat troubles.
Thanks for the pics, Jeff.

Great job guys, wish I could have been there but was on a Harley ride to the Travis Tritt concert in Stafford Springs! I did win a $100 certificate for ammo at Cabella's in a raffle though!

Thanks for the pics, Jeff.
Wow, speedo must be way off, although it bounces around a bit so I was guessing...on my list for this winter...

Never overheated, but it was warm...I was getting some bogging again cause the carb was starting to boil. Ordered a carb heat shield tonight, see if that fixes it...

Here's a few pics of mine I took...

Great show today! Unfortunately I couldn't get coverage for work today so I just stopped in for a little while on an extended break before heading back to Branford. Had to park the polo metallic green '96 in the spectator lot.

I'm new to the forum and don't really know anyone here, but if you saw a bearded guy with a camo boonie hat going around with a pro-level camera shooting video around 2:30-4:00pm, that was me.

First time back in about 7 years due to my daughters births. My wife and I used to go regularly. Her dark brown '76 L-82 took 2nd and 3rd back then. Hopefully I'll get the '76 squared away and we'll be back to take 1st next year!

Anyway, good to see the show going strong and I'll try to get some videos posted soon. Although I might just post the raw videos for nowbecause I'm backed up with video projects. But eventually I plan on doing an in-depth program with Club Corvette CT.

I thought of you guys...imagined the sweat equity you were adding to your Vettes...that alone warranted a trophy, but the cars look prime as always and I'm glad the judges felt the same.

Thanks to the Club Corvette for another great show, the Posse riders for an enjoyable day, and all for the compliments. So many really nice C5 roadsters this year...I was lucky to place. Great pics. Thanks for posting.

Congrats to all the Posse trophy winners! That would be everyone except me LOL. You guys are in a whole different league. Was great the see you guys and maybe next year i'll step it up. Still not sure I can reach your level. Very friendly group of people and was amazed on how much attention my poorly prepped car got. Till next time.......
