2016 Performance Workshop.

Postby Rick Andersen » Tue Mar 08, 2016 12:22 am

The Corvair Performance Group met again for 2016 at the Kokomo Automotive Heritage Museum in Kokomo Indiana on Friday March 4 and Saturday March 5. This gathering of Corvair performance enthusiasts included thirteen members of the V-8 Registry. Attendance this year was 54. Members greeted each other in the Hampton Inn lobby to renew old acquaintances on Friday afternoon. Dinner at the Half Moon Brewery featured a varied menu. Later Friday evening the members used the hotel conference room to continue some lively discussion along with more beer and snacks.

On Saturday morning the parts vendors arrived at 7:30 AM to set up their performance wares. Presentations started at 9:00 Am in the museum main display area. Topics related to racing lubricants, HEI systems and transmissions were included in the all day workshop. Both breakfast and lunch were served. Tony Maxson, one of our V-8 Registry's new members, made a presentation about his sharp 1965 LS3 coupe sporting a Porsche G50 transaxle, five speed gears and C5 suspension along with Z06 wheels. Super looking car Tony and welcome to the our group. The workshop concluded at 4:30 PM and was followed at 6:30 PM by a MexiFest dinner provided by Tracy LeVeque, the Performance Group president. Dinner included Margaritas for a meager price of $5. Everyone ate their fill and conversations lasted late into the evening.

Sunday morning there were the customary good-bye's as members loaded their cars and trucks for some long rides home. It was an event filled with good comradery, interesting workshop topics and tasty food. We all look forward to next year.

John Lanning
V8 Registry President
