Hello everyone!

I am not new to the forum, but I will be a moving to the San Antonio area at the end of May and will be brand new to the area.
What Corvette and muscle car clubs are in the San Antonio area and where do you guys/gals hand out at?

gotjuice?

Friday nights at Biffs. There are a couple of clubs in town, Mostly an older group.

There's lots of SA vette guys. They're a bit

Blue 396

Check the "sticky" on this thread by Cosmo - he has lot of info on shows and events in the area - several clubs - Texas Corvette Association, Alamo Corvettes, Long Horn Corvettes out of Austin

Seems most members of local clubs are into the C6 C7 crowd not much of older C2 person to be involved in - Also a group called Sweet Rides that runs a lot of Sunday high speed events on the highways -

lots of cars and events to go to other than Corvette - google Texas Car Shows

Welcome to the area

I have a vette but was an F body guy for years. I hung out with SA f body but when I got a vette I had to ask if it was cool to still hang out with them. They told me 100% yes, its still cool. In fact, the vice pres. recently picked up an FRC roller he turned into a monster with his old Formula engine.

Great bunch of guys to be around and will give you the shirt off their backs if necessary.

What part of town are you planning on living in?

Both TCA (Texas Corvette Assoc) and Alamo Area Corvette Club offer all kinds of events and cruises. TAC meets at Biffs 35 & Topperwien, AACC meets at County Line BBQ. Check out the web sites. Welcome to San Antonio.

Awesome! What is the address? I will def drive the Vette over and hang out once I get settled in. I love hanging out with fellow car enthusiasts and gear heads

I will def check out the threads. I currently own a 2007 C6, but I love all corvettes. My fist Vette was a 1979 fixer-upper
.. Did you say high speed?
Awesome, I won't lie..I will be a Corvette girl until the day I die, but I bleed Chevy. I remember when my dad brought home a 1993 Camaro from the dealership..it was one of the first one's in the area, when that body style was brand spanking new! LOL..some guy drove into a snow bank looking at it as we were driving home that day.

I am planning on renting a house in Converse TX. I hear it is a very nice area.

I would love to hang out with you guys sometime!

Awesome! Hopefully I will see you around! Perhapse we will be neighbors!

I am active duty Army and it is time to PCS. I will be moving from Ft Jackson, SC to Ft Sam and be working at the hospital.

I will def check them out when I get settled. I love cruises and car shows because they are usually for a good cause.

Thank you everyone for such a warm welcome! You would be surprized but some places are not as friendly!

very cool, I graduated high school in SC (charleston) and have been in Texas for around 12 years now. It's a pretty cool place to come to and San Antonio is a nice place in itself.

Some observations on driving in town. Lots of locals WILL stop at yield signs, be prepared, and most don't know how to merge properly. You will also have a lot of people driving 5 -10 mph under the speed limit on highways in the left lane and they will not change lanes.

Very True!!!

It's a small world! I graduated from MUSC!! I love Charleston and I lived there for about 10 years.

Sounds like Biff's is the place to be..will be one of my first stops once I get settled.

Good to know..lol I think that is SC too!

I have 2 questions for you guys/gals.

1. How do you get away without a front license plate? I really do not want to get a ticket for not having a front license plate, but I REALLY REALLY REALLY do not want to put one on the car because it would totally ruin the look of the car as well as block air flow.

2: I am not 100% sure my car would pass the inspection, so where is there a Corvette friendly inspection station at? SC does not require vehicle inspections or front license plates.
