awesome day...
Just wanted to say wow...yet another great experience. Was a pleasure meeting all of you today. Some new faces and some I have had the pleasure of meeting a few times now. Can't wait to do it again next year. For those of you still driving to get back home, drive safe.
Big special thanks to Jeff Williams. You sir make so many veterans happy with this event each year. As an add on bonus you have also impacted so many corvette owner's lives. For those that have never attended this event, I would say start planning for 2014 now. You will not be disappointed. I'll try to get some pictures up within the next couple of days and the videos to youtube as well.
Thanks again to Jeff and the entire vettes for vets staff.
Ps: I mentioned to some of the staff today...when considering getting more tshirts printed up, please print some in the same pink and light blue that the official staff members were wearing. I myself put in for one pink size small and 1 light blue size medium.

I couldnt agree more! I've heard a million national anthems, most of which were great...but this gal did the most beautiful job singing, she has the perfect voice. Incredible!

Everybody, Just want to say thanks for stepping up and help making this event a sucess! Jeff did a great job as usual and we really neeed to show our support for next year. Although it was nice only having 230 or so cars this year we really need to get to that 270 - 300 mark next time so be sure to talk it up among your clubs and friend that own vettes (other cars too if necessary).
I don't know know about ya'll but having the cheat sheet with names, screen names and car types really helped me a lot. Managed to meet a lot more people this year than ever.

I couldnt agree more about filling the 270 slots. I will be there next year with at least 4 sessions and I don't care if they have to double the price in order to cover the track rental. That was the most exciting day I have ever experienced hands ffffing down period.
OTOH, if they keep letting mini coopers and pickup trucks attend, getting 270 slots filled should be a cakewalk.
And just thinking out loud here, just a suggestion, is have all non corvettes run in 15 packs together. But I have ZERO complaints the way Jeff ran the event. can

I agree with you both! Excellent event as always! Yeh the only thing that I noticed was that a few people were blocking other people (myself included) in the garage. I think for next year I'll remind Jeff to announce over the P.A.
"Place your car number in your windshield and be mindful of others on where you park in the garage."Please don't park in the garage if your session is 2 hours or more out."You will simply be holding up things as we will have to shuffle folks around to get them out on the track." Wait until a spot becomes available in the garage and only park in there once you have verified that the cars around you are in your session."

My gopro cam on BlueangelSAE Scotts Vette. I think we both did about about as much speed that we could get out of our Grand sports before hitting the brakes in turn 3

I really appreciate all the kind words about the event. It is a lot of work, but every second is worth it when I see all the joy the event brings.
This year everyone was very good. We did not have to stop the event for any reason. I can't guarantee the "Last Session" will happen again, but it sure was fun, wasn't it?
I took a lot longer at lunch time than I had originally intended, but I think it worked out fine.
I usually try to get the non-Vettes together, but the late registrations kinda hosed up my scheduling plans.

Right on Jeff. Thanks for putting together the most awesome event I've ever been a part of. I can't thank you enough! I got a chuckle when just prior to your wife singing the National Anthem you said over the PA "the more video cameras on her the better she sings". I was at the far end of the garage nowhere close to video but next year I'm going to video her singing it. Awesome.
I got the privilege of taking out an 8 year old boy named colden who's daddy lost an arm and a leg in the sand. Colden had a blast. I hope he gets to see this video.
