Default Re: Bogus Yenko sighting at Carlise

I think that we all are in agreement that something needs to be done, and the sooner the better. Here are some suggestions. One, we need to form a group of interested parties and have them meet to organize a plan of attack, and also set some guidelines, such as fees, release of information, etc. In addition, they would over see the activities related to the supercar hobby, such as the registry, reunion, web pages, etc. Second, Brian is right, the best way to document a car would be to see it in person. A good place to begin doing this would be at the supercar reunion. Each year we have experts on the various supercars in attendance. We could have the experts on the Yenkos do those, the Harrell people do those, etc. Once a car is judged to be authenic, the owner would get something stating that the car has been certified by the Supercar Registry and also, the information on the car would go into a central registry. For people who own several supercars and/or can not make the reunion, then arrangements would need to be made to go see the cars. Both ways of checking cars would require some time and money, but once done, we would have a good base to work with. Even though I know the history of my cars, I would be willing to pay to have them certified and placed in a central registry. That way, if I ever sell, buyers would not have to take my word for it that the cars are legit. It would make the cars easlier to sell and I think, would raise the price, as buyers could bid with comfidence that they were buying a legit car. Third, we need one central registry for all of the supercars. I do not care who or where it is, I would be willing to work with who ever the group chose. In conclusion, as founder and president of the Yenko Sportscar Club, I will pledge full support from the club, in an effort to get this started. Its OUR hobby, so WE should determine how it continues. NOW!!! Tom
