>>> The OFFICIAL RALEIGH-DURHAM-CH Meet-Up Thread <<<
In an older thread there was a brief discussion about getting some Corvette activities going in the Triangle area. It never got off the ground, but I think there was enough interest to pursue it.
I'm not thinking about a formal club, just a chance to meet-up with other Corvette folks in the area. Some activity ideas could be:
Cruise-Ins/shows
HPDE/autocross/racing
Holiday Laps at VIR
NCCAR events
Go Karts at Rush Hour Karting
Road trips to ALMS or Grand-Am races
Tech help
Or just meeting somewhere and hoisting a couple cold ones and shooting the bull.

Burlington Cruise-In
Well, it was damned cold and mostly a younger crowd. There was a super nice old Chevy II and some vintage Camaros and Mustangs.
After a while the ricer crowd showed up. By then it was too cold so we retired to Hooters.
After we left the kids apparently started screwing around and local law enforcement was called in. That was probably the last cruise-in at the Burlington Harris Teeter.

From another thread:
SCMC/TCUSA on Track at VIR, Danville, VA -- 1/26-1/27 w/ GOOD WEATHER GUARANTEE!
ALL MAKES AND MODELS WELCOME!
SCMC/TCUSA on Track at Virginia International Raceway -- January 26-27 – Danville VA

I hope everyone had a great Holiday and has big plans for a fantastic New Year celebration! I know many of you are getting excited for the 2013 on track season. Many of us are tired of the hustle and bustle of the holidays and are getting ready to hit the track next month at VIR. That’s right a January track event…don't laugh, it was sunny and 65 degrees last year and we all had a blast! This is the first "official" SCMC/TCUSA event for 2013. The event will be an HPDE with no car show or dyno, just plain old wide open, full throttle, full course VIR for two days. Here is the information you will need for this event.
Virginia International Raceway, Danville VA
January 26-27, 2013

The Southeast Region has a hyperdive at Carolina Motorsports Park (SC) on Feb. 9th
. Also Road Atlanta has one on March 9th. That one is $75 for some reason. There is another one at CMP on May 18th.

I was hoping with this thread that we could create a less formal group (none of that rules of order rot) that is more performance oriented.
