Want a broken down B2-k there? I will try to clean it up and coast it in! It is only 55 miles up hill so I can probably push it in if I have to.

Guys and Gals:

Well it was a great event! Saw GILS4sea, Reeves, Chris, Syd and Dillon H. Got to drive the new Pickup 6.2 L.

The pickup is boss, a rocket on 20s or 22's, I think. Smooth ride, set up high, JK it will make a great Suburban!

Chris brought his secret weapon and it was nice to see her! His wife! Natasha is a great road warrior!

They rode the helicopter and Harchelroad and Callaway had a great marketing weekend! I hope to get pics from my son and or Chris posts his!

There were estimated 700 Corvettes for the 40th annual! A big show!

Pics or film at 11!

Got back to Indiana from the Black Hills after travelling a little more than 2800 miles. What a great event!! The scenery and roads are worth dying for!! 505 Corvettes registered for the 40th BHCC! The Sioux Falls Corvette Club is very friendly and makes certain everyone has a great time.

Met up briefly with DA. Guest speaker at the banquet was Gary Bennett of Barrett-Jackson. Reeves Callaway made a few comments at the banquet and he and Chris conducted a seminar on Callaway history and future. Harchelroad Motors had a new SC540 Silverado pickup on hand for all to drive.

A few pictures are attached.

Jeroen,
I've posted links below from my Picasa albums with pictures I took from the BHCC with 8 other couples from our local Corvette club from Newburgh, In. We traveled just over 2800 miles to, from and during the BHCC. FYI, I drove my Grand Sport to the Black Hills this year--last year I drove a Callaway Twin Turbo. This event started in Sioux Falls, SD on Tuesday, July 12. Then on Thursday, July 14, everyone gathered at Billion Chevrolet in Sioux Falls to caravan across South Dakota to Spearfish, about 400 miles of open road. A big kickoff party was held in Spearfish on Thursday evening. Friday and Saturday included guided tours of Devils Tower, Mt Rushmore, Wind Cave, Needles Hwy, Custer State Park, Iron Mountain Rd, Vanocker Canyon and Spearfish Canyon. These tours allow for fabulous scenery and very spirited driving. The event concluded with the Vette Street USA Corvette Show held this year on the Blackhills State University grounds.

I hope you enjoy the pics and don't get too bored with them. Here are the links:
