Blast from the Past: River Front Car Show September 16, 2000 By: Aristotle Fink Rain, drizzle, & fog appeared to be the weather of the day as we prepared for the trip to Sedro-Woolley for a day of relaxation and car watching. We met at the usual place in Mount Vernon and after waiting for a bit to see if anyone else showed up, stopped off for a bit of breakfast before proceeding to the Sedro- Woolley car show site. Ande & Lucy Mitchelle were waiting for us and had reserved some spaces so we could all park together. Also there were Gary & Kathy Hammer. The rest of the group consisted of Gilbert, Fix, Reed, & Smith. Upon arrival, we all spent some time trying to clean up the cars and get the mud and dirt off the best way we could. It wasn't too long before the sun broke through the clouds and showered us with sunshine rather than rain showers. We finally gave up on the cars and just spent time walking around looking at all the great cars on display and visiting with the car owners. There were about 150 cars present and included just about anything one could think of. By the time trophies were presented the sun was feeling pretty nice and some of us decided to stay back by the cars and lounge a bit since we just knew that we wouldn't get any trophies anyway. As it turned out, 6 out of the 7 club cars received trophies. Leo & Penny for their '60 Roadster, Gary & Kathy for their '62 Roadster. Ande & Lucy for their '80 Coupe, Larry & Joyce for their '67 Coupe, Doug for his '64 Coupe and Jim & June for their '94 Coupe. Only Linda with her '96 Coupe didn't receive a trophy. It must have been one of the big trophies that didn't show up in time for the show. Alice and Mark were there also, representing the Whidbey Cruisers and they each got trophies for their cars. It was a pretty nice day and kind of nice to watch the other guys put on a show for a change. Member s ride of the month: Mel & Linda's 2000 Coupe

Corvette News: Start saving now if you want a new front engine Corvette??????????????? 2017 Corvette ZR1 might be a 700-hp track weapon Whatever the specs, it seems the ZR1 will be a fitting farewell to the front-engine 'Vette From Autoweek, October 27, 2016 It looks like the front-engine Chevrolet Corvette is going out with a bang. The final addition to the seventh-generation Corvette lineup, the ZR1, is speculated to have at least 700 hp churning from its supercharged V8 engine. There also are rumors the engine could be as powerful as 750 hp. While that might be hard to believe, given the problems with the Corvette Z06 s 650-hp V8, it would make the ZR1 the most powerful Corvette to roll out of the factory for street use and a fitting end for the front-engine supercar. All the speculation about the new 'Vette will likely be laid to rest at this year s Detroit auto show, where it s rumored Chevy will lift the curtain off of the ZR1. http://autoweek.com/article/rumormill/chevrolet-corvette-zr1-might-be-700-hp-track-weapon Corvette Museum Motorsports Park: Have a need for SPEED? The NCM Motorsports Park is located less than two miles from the Museum and offers the chance for you to ride in a Corvette, drive your car on the road course for a lap, participate in a high performance driving school and/or spectate at one of many motorsports events going on throughout the season. When you pick up that new Vette, plan it when you can attend a HPDE or Skip Barber Racing School! http://www.corvettemuseum.org/visit/motorsports-park/ When we attended the 50 th Anniversary Caravan, traffic going to the Museum was backed up on the freeway to where the NCM logo is on the above photo. That s Corvettes all the way around the clover leaf and down the street to the entrance to the Museum complex (about 2 miles and 45 minutes)!!
