Discussion Forum - Northstar Chevelle Club

Cool Scott!!! I wish I could have sent up my Dunlops to help you out with the autocross.

We won the RSE- it's official. Still can't believe it!

That's FANTASTIC !!!!

Pretty much guaranties a story in an upcoming issue...

Outstanding job Scott!  Looking forward to reading about it, in an upcoming issue!

Congratulations Scott! That's really cool and I love the fact you did it in a wagon! It just confirms what we all already knew...that you put yourself together one fun ride!

Thanks Chris P for letting me stow my gear in your ride.

I had a good time but next year I plan on having my Chevelle parked in Chevelle row!

Congratulations Scott!!

I'd like to drop a note and "thank you" to all the members that braved the heat, rain, & wind and made our showing at the event a success!

We made a very respectable showing at this event, and really gave an example of what a car club should be all about.

I wish I could have been there!!! I'm damn proud of this club!

Oh- and thumbs up to whoever brought the Subway sandwiches! Great move there- it should be a regular part of the program. Perfect timing and there's nothing like a cool sandwich on a hot afternoon. It was perfect.

Credit for the bottled water all 3 days and the subs on Sat. goes to John D.  He suggested it, the officers approved, and the club paid for it.  Thanks to John D. and my wife for picking them up and delivering them in the rain too....!.

If anyone was at the meeting, they heard that our treasury continues to grow, and these are small ways we can give it back to the club to remain 'non-profit'.   

I can't take full credit for the water and sandwiches guys...
Dave Seitz and I were chatting on the phone and the idea was hatched between the 2 of us. He also brought a few cases of H2O and added to the cooler.

(The real credit goes to my wife for not throttling/choking the living..... out of the doofus' at Subway. I called the order in 1-1/2 days IN ADVANCE, for pickup at 9:30am, on Saturday. She gets there at 9:30, and they HADN'T EVEN STARTED MAKING THE ORDER!!)

 Yes, very thoughtful for them to think of the water and food (especially the water).

We'll continue to use some of the club funds as needed, though we also keep some in reserve to afford things like paying for the new shirts we ordered and funding some of the Automania car show expenses. Until the shirts are sold, the club has money tied up in them, same with expenses until the show happens.

Also, we had a great turnout with members, and I think even aside from the Awards, our club is getting to be known. Full show recap in the newsletter.

Maybe this is a good place and time to say this- but I've seen this club go through some stuff since I starting hanging out with you guys about 4 yrs ago. I must say that right now, based on the enthusiasm, turnout, and quality of the members and cars participating, that this club has never been better. The dragstrip day, cruise night stuff, and Car Craft are the only 3 things I've been a part of this year, but all 3 were well attended, well organized, and just plain fun! I'm glad to be here, and the low pressure, easy-going nature of this club is really appealing to me. I hang out with you guys because I want to, not because I feel like I have to (as has been the case with other clubs I've been a part of).

Whatever is happening is working. Let's keep it up!

IT was nice to see everyone at car craft. Since i couldn't make back to the 50's this yr. I HAD to make Car Craft. Brad & I walked around for a couple of hrs. Then had lunch with Ian. Had a pretty good time. Hope you guy's don't mind if and old Hot Rodder comes around sometimes. Thanks Jon for helping Brad & I with those tires. You saved the day for two old guys. :)...
