I first posted this thread on the SoCal region asking if the Bay area is considered SoCal or NorCal and man did I get some comments about the NorCal area which I won't mention you can go search and read them youself. Anyway I'm changing coasts,will be stationed in Concord, CA. Can anyone post any pictures of their Vettes in this area so I can see what I have to look foward to, I've been told it is a nice area.Thanks

...and I already posted the link to the socal responses in our local bar...amusing, to say the least. I think they are just jealous that traffic is only half as bad up here and our air is 10times cleaner.

So Cal is just jealous of our local tunners, who are the best, by the way. Whats your next Mod?

Welcome, Now get that car cleaned up for some cruising, and great get togethers.

SD is SoCal... after reading that other thread, there's a whole lot of angry people there!

Concord is a nice town, been through it a couple times.

Some random GTG pics:







We've also got some local road race tracks. Sears Point and Laguna Seca (the new "corporate" names escape me!), as well as Thunderhills up in Willows.

Me at Thunderhills




Lot's to do here, and always something Corvette related going on!

Welcome to our house. We are a cool group of people and like to drive our cars and shoot the chit at our local events. I am the local dealership contact fixer upper guy and will be happy to hook you up with anything you may need. Here are a few teasers from some of our GTG's we have.

A customer appreciation BBQ at my dealership.......we let the Goats hang out too.


A pic of the girlfriends house from a little while back. Since then the GTO has been sold. The C6 is hers and the Z06 is mine. The bottom one is my Z06.




A typical weekend GTG at our local Horsepower shop Advanced Dyno




Another car show at my work last year. Over 125 Vettes in one place.



My car in action at ThunderHill Raceway.



The new addition to the family. 2007 TBSS



Another big cruise in Nor Cal. 275 cars attended this one.
