Hello Corvette friends! As we were away on family matters last week, there was no post, I hope you all had a lot of fun and enjoyed some Corvette thunder! The C8.R had its debut at the 24 hours of Daytona and finished a strong 4th, not bad for a first outing. Lots of pictures from Daytona here.

John Ulrich was at several of the auctions around town and took great pictures for us and we have some from Rainer too. Take a few minutes to browse the albums linked below.

I'm looking forward to blowing the cobwebs out of the exhausts this weekend and catching up with all of you at the various venues. See you soon!

Weekend Events - January 18 - 19

Big goings-on this weekend as the various auctions are in town. Barrett Jackson remains the big show, so head on over for a great experience.

Penske Cars & Coffee on Saturday morning will be fairly full with all of the interest around the auctions, so arrive early (before 7:00) to make sure you have a place.

Pavillions was absolutely jammed last week and this week will be the same. No reserved areas or spots this week, so park anywhere you want or can.

Phil's Filling Station on Sunday - the "home field" for Jet Set Vettes. Hope to see you all there!

Tortilla Flat - Pictures

For those who were able to make it, John's annual New Year's Day run to Tortilla Flat was a fun trip. Plenty of pictures at this link.

Happy New Year!

Although we haven't had a post for a couple of weeks, there's been plenty of Corvette fun going on. Let's recap and look ahead a bit. Pictures from a few events below as well as some fun videos. Don't forget the Scuderia Southwest show next Saturday at the Scottsdale 101 center at Mayo and Scottsdale Road.

PCH Toy Run: Kevin and I went on the Scuderia Southwest Toy Run to Phoenix Children's Hospital. We had a huge group of cars for the trip from Scottsdale and I think more than a few people out on the 101 and 202 got neck strain from swiveling their heads around at the high speed parade of exotics and Corvettes! More importantly, we delivered a huge number of toys to the children at the hospital for Christmas.  Click here for all the pictures from the PCH Toy Run.

Streetside Cars & Coffee: We went to Streetside yesterday with the Camaro. As usual, there was a great turnout of old and new fun cars and the best donuts and coffee in town (Bossa donuts!). Lots of pictures here and a few below.

Sitting around the house on a cloudy day? Here's a link to a compilation of Corvette themed shows from Motor Trend. You'll see a C4 Kart, a Grand Sport, the Z06 and ZR1 and more!

Here are a couple more - C7 ZR1 and C8 on the track.
