Subject: It has
been great
Dear KSCC members
Diane and I want to thank you for all the fun you have
given us over the past year. As some of you know we bought a place in FL, and
we have decided to retire and relocate. We leave for our new life version
3.0 this Thursday. We are very excited. We hope we will find great Corvette
friends in the Tampa area who have as much fun as we did here in
Chester County.
So to all my Corvette friends, take care

Thanks Guy for a fun excursion to
Contemporary Corvette.
We had a wonderful breakfast at Bob Evans then at 9:20 AM we departed for
Contemporary Corvette. This place is truly amazing. They have a large
selection of late generation C3s to C6s. Even if you did not need anything
it was interesting to see a salvage yard with almost exclusively
Corvettes. They also specialize in late model rear drive V8 drive trains
from late model GTOs, Camaros and Cadillacs. These engine/trans combos are
in high demand for modern Rot Rod conversions. More pictures can be found
on the photo album page.
April 4, 2009
Three KSCC members made it to
NJ Motorsport Park for their Drivers Club day. Forty to fifty
Corvettes were there for the event. It was an exciting day starting with a
continental breakfast, paced laps around both tracks, exhibition of "Hot
Laps" by several racers including John Heinricy, membership presentation,
presentation by John Heinricy and ending with some fun laps on the Kart
track. If you are into racing this looks to be an excellent opportunity
close to home.
