Default Barn Raising II article has been published!!!!

I received permission this morning from America's Sports Car magazine editor Bob Bubnis (Bob2.0) to post the 2 page article that has just been published by the NCM.

Bob interviewed Iron Chef for the article and Oyealiz, Yamma and I provided the photos. Bob was quite impressed with the fun we had and plans to join us for Barn Raising III.

We hope the article will also entice a lot of new people to join The Vette Barn . You have to be a member of the NCM to receive the magazine. Hopefully both groups will see an increase in membership.

If you'd like to receive a pdf of the article, PM me your email address and I'll ship it off to you.

Thank you Bob!!!!!!

Too Cool! If things work out, I'll be able to drive my own Vette there next year (at least that is the plan I'm working on!)

I went on a nationwide vette gathering/homecoming to NCM back in '98/99 or so, and bought a brick with my kid's name on it, and some other stuff, question is, I thought that included membership for life if not mistaken.....

but not heard anything in years now....I had some literature around here somewhere, including a pix of the brick, but not seen the literature in years....

anyone that can check this out?
