Just returned from a 6 days trip to Lemans with fellow American, English and Dutch NCRS members and I believe everybody would agree what a great impression the Corvettes made. The engine sound is very distinctive from the rest and a pleasure for everybody's ears.

The C5 finished 3rd in its class which was a unexpected surprise!

Their's nothing like the sound of an open exhaust Bowtie Rat motor.

It's also noteworthy that a privately entered C5R finished third in GT1, and the Porsche guys are apoplectic over the Panoz taking GT2!

Who would have ever guessed that American iron would dominate the whole GT category.

It was a FANTASTIC week and I want to express my gratitude to the UK NCRS Chapter for organizing this great event! Well done guys. My photo's will be published soon on the Dutch NCRS site (in the next couple of days). I'll post the link when done...

We also want to thank the Americans for comming over and help out with judging the cars and yes, my C3 BB Yellow/Black was awarded Top Flight very unexpectedly mainly due to its originality and major driving points (the restoration wasn't even started yet, only safety related resto work was done)!!!

A big thanks from all of us who joined from the proposed Dutch Chapter!!!

greetings,
Rob.
