It was brilliant and a bit no mates in the evening but we had a blast.

The event which I will write up for the Corvette Mag was larger than last year with the additional 'All American' race which featured NASCAR types and pickups Cobra's etc.

Next year is the same weekend 22-24 and the 26th as its the 30th birthday of the event.

I have spoken to Rich and he may try to convince the panel to move your weekend as next year it will clash again.

Hockenheim is under treat as the circuit went bust this year its at the moment run by the town, they say if the F1 goes elsewhere then it may close for good

Saw loads of ZO6 and C6 models in about every clour you could think of.

The date for the Nats will probably be the same weekend but it hasn't yet been fully decided.

However, depending on how everything falls, my potential plan for next year is to do Le Mans, stay over for a week and do Hockenheim the following weekend. Sounds perfect to me - just need to find a roof rack or trailer for all Jeannie's luggage.

Paul am I reading that right? It's staying the last weekend in June rather than July???? What a shame.

Could you imaging an English town trying to keep a circuit open??????

Given the choice of the Nats or Hockey then for me it has to be Hockey so you wont be alone next year

Sorry initial date was a bummer date to be 22-24th June confirmed.

If anyone would like to stay in the same hotel as some of the competitors then let me know and we can start making plans.

I will be doing the Autocross event as it looks fun.
