Default State of the Union

Or in this case, State of the sYc.


As we count down the hours until the end of another year, I look back at 2004 and cannot believe the incredible year the sYc had. Thanks everyone.

On Janaury 1 of '04, we had 1500 registered users, now we are at 1998, with 78 new registered users this month alone. During the early part of '04, we began accepting members and official sponsors, with the response over whelming. Because of this generousity, the sYc was able to update our BB software, and for SCR7, reserve additional room for cars, (which by the way was much needed, as SCR7 was home of the largest gathering of supercars EVER), lease Gateway International Dragway and have as our guests Ed Hedrick, Warren Dernoshek and Bob McClurg.
During 2004 the sYc held gatherings at numerous shows, including Carlisle, York US30, the Gibb Show, our own SCR and most recent, Vettefest, with member's cars receiving numerous awards. While attending these events, several members were asked to serve as judges and special guest speakers.
2004 was a very good year for member's cars to appear in the various magaines, with several shot during the SCR.


What does 2005 have in store for us? I predict in 2005 we will see the sYc once again be the leader in the promotion and preservation of the rare supercars. For the last several years our hobby has flourished like no other, and I see that continuing to happen, thanks in large part to the unselfish giving of our members.

HAPPY NEW YEAR everyone!!!

I also want to thank Rob and Tom. Even though I don't have a Supercar..this site has tremendous information available to all! It also has members such as Mr. Sandlin, Mr. Suydam(anyone heard from him lately?) and Mr. Lillard...and yes even Bob(don't call me Belair anymore)Gagliano who really know their stuff...and are out there to protect the integrity of supercar collecting. The also have the ability to purchase and restore, or purchase and leave original some of the rarer cars out there...for later generations of gearheads to see!

I've met people on this board who share my interests(anyone who has even a remote love of any high performance car should be a member here!)and I will get to meet them face to face at Barrett Jackson in a few weeks. I look forward to meeting all of you.


BTW, since I just joined officially as a member in December, do I have to re-up in January...or am I good until next December?

I hope that everyone has a healthy, happy and prosperous new year to come.

Bruce

It indeed does get better every year. I am happy to have met several new friends this year. This is a great car club family. But you know it's not always about the cars. I have had members help me with personal matters, prayers and etc. Some have opened their doors and welcomed me like we have been friends forever. To me that speaks volumes of the quality people here. Thanks to everyone! Hopefully this year will bring me another car to begin my "collector" status.

The highlight had to be Charley and Belair hugging at SCR7.
