MECF 25th/Caravan Meetup Sign Up

[John]

Checking the latest NCM agenda, we found a nice air conditioned spot for us to meet, e.g., the Chevrolet Theater @ 4:00 PM, Friday.

There is an always-enjoyable BGA Plant Manager Kai Spande, one hour presentation scheduled in the theater at 2:30 PM. It is entitled, “What’s New at the BGAP?”

If you are wanting to attend that seminar too, as the theater only holds 168, and as his presentations are always a full house, I suggest you enter the theater NLT 2:00 PM (though there is overflow at the PDI area (at the end of Corvette Blvd near the Corvette Cafe entrance) Even if Kai’s presentation runs a little over, there is nothing else scheduled after it within the theater.

Hence, if you would like to join us, whether attending Kai’s presentation or not, we shall meet inside, at the very front of the theater at 4:00 PM. So far we have Keith Cornett (CorvetteBlogger) Brad 66, and I attending. We sure hope to re-see some of you we met at the BASH, and we meet many other MECF members there.

Thank you for signing up below. [This thread is sticky’d.]

I will do everything within my ability to meet you there!

Met Kai Spande a few years ago when our then club president picked up his car at the museum. A bunch of our members went down with him and arranged a factory tour just for our club, and before we started Kai came out and chatted with us for a bit. He certainly didn't need to do that, but it was great to meet him.

We just happened to see the very first production C7 GS coming down the line while we were there, too. Kai told us it would be started that day, but that we were probably too early to see it. We got lucky. Definitely a great guy.

John, good to see that the breakfast BASH tradition of some sort is continuing with NCM's 25th Anniversary. Marty and I will be there. I'm really interested to see what Kia has to say as to his last year's comments about no more than 28,000 annual Corvette production and Mary Barra adding a second shift to increase production!

I'm in too. Now to add this to my iCal.

[John]

Bryan, at long last we get to meet in person. I look forward to that!

[Tispco]

I am planning to attend. I have a torch red C8 on order and I have been following this forum for awhile. It will be great to meet everyone.

[John]

Welcome Tispco. Glad you joined us. We look forward to joining you at our MECF meeting space.

Nicely looking upcoming C8 ahead for you.

One of these days, when I finally retire, I'll join all y'all, at BG. Still having too much fun training Air Force pilots, as a contractor, to retire. Looking forward to visiting the NCM next year when the plant also opens up. As the old saying goes, I'll live precariously through your experience--this time. Looking forward to hearing about your trip. Enjoy!

[John]

WesC8, we look forward to your get a C8 whenever that is.

What’s New at the BGAP Speaker: Kai Spande Chevrolet Theater and Simulcast to Delivery Garage off of Corvette BLVD

As of the 8/15 agenda, there is nothing scheduled in the theater at 4pm so we should be good to meet in there.

[WesC8]

John.. I was planning on my new C8 in 2022....but she is so "hot", I might have to pull the trigger on a 2021--IF there are any allocations available..

[John]

For you WesC8, if you are rearing to go, we can get you a 2020. All up to you. PM me if you would like any help getting one even for 2020 at MSRP.

Thanks Fendi. That’s where I got mine for my C7. Will revisit and get them for my C8 and next April’s Bash.

In the interim, will see you next week at the 25th. Might you be joining us, we hope, here?

Hi John. I aim to be there. I believe our groups meet up on the way.

I have never gotten a window sticker for my C7. Does the library do canadian stickers? Early production to canada so i got a wierd sticker.
