July 25, 2014:  On July 14, member Vince Gabrunas and his 1974 coupe had a bad day:  a wheel fell off the car while driving!  Apparently the wheel's lug nuts had not been properly tightened during a safety inspection on the 11th.  The wheel loss occurred less than 10 miles after the service work.  To avoid damage such as the '74 experienced, it is strongly recommended to check lug nuts any time you have work done on any of your vehicles before leaving the shop.  In this instance, thankfully no one else was involved, and there were no injuries, but it could easily have been a far more serious event.  And yes, the '74 will be repaired and back on the road soon!

February 6, 2013:  Ken Brinton won top honors at the chili cook-off.  He says it took him 5 trips through the Steak'n'Shake drive-thru to collect enough!  Coming in second was Susan Williams, and Lon Friesenborg garnered third (or should that be garnished?).  Some rumors float about that at least two members have initiated the process for obtaining 2014 Stingrays.  Good luck!  And in another rumor, a certain member who favors yellow Z06's let slip that the next one may NOT be said color!
