Spring 2023 Chairman’s Message

By Jim Moxley

Hello to all the Mid-Atlantic Members!

We may have an early Spring this year and that means we can get our Corvettes out a bit earlier than normal and begin to flex the muscles of these great machines. It is amazing to think that Corvette enthusiasts have been going through this annual ritual for soon to be 70 years.

The strength of the legacy and nostalgia of the Corvette may be unmatched in the automotive world. The photo on the right paints a picture of 70 years of Corvette evolution. Several models have routinely been the subject of NCRS judging sessions. We keep moving along that timeline (now we are on the verge of C6 judging) until we see the remarkable C-8. It’s a bit hard to realize that the C-8 will have a Technical Information and Judging Guide someday.

While that seems far into future, the near future, 2023, presents lots of opportunities to enjoy our Corvettes. The typical variety of activities include restoration and maintenance (sometimes its toil), road tours, technical and judging schools, and flight judging and other judging events, all within the context of camaraderie with fellow enthusiasts.

Toward that end, the Mid-Atlantic Chapter has an outstanding schedule of events planned for 2023. Kicking off the year on April 1 with the judging event hosted by Zip Corvette in Mechanicsville, followed on May 6 with the second judging event at Lindsay Chevrolet in Front Royal, VA.

Please check out the schedule of events on the MAC website (ncrsmac.org) and plan to join us for all of the planned events this year. Better yet, plan to come and pitch in to help judge or contribute in some other way.

I look forward to seeing you there.
