Mike, first..looks like a really neat car, with all of the B/M goodies.
I will try an answer your questions, if I miss something, feel free to ask. The Annual Supercar Reunion has no deadline for entry. As we get closer, we will have a "scheduled to attend" thread, but that is not etched in concrete, just a way to give folks an idea of what is coming. If you do decide to attend SCR12 (this year), we would love to know in advance, but not required. One of the neat things about the reunion is there are always a few surprises show up. It is an open show. However, as they have done with you, members will extend an invitation to new comers, inviting them to attend the SCR, and other sYc events. Our goal with the SCR is to treat everyone the same, each paying the same entry fee and no judging, with everyone receiving the same participation award. The SCR is about hanging out friends, meeting new ones, and enjoying some of the rarest, and coolest cars in the world. You speak of imposters, yes, we have fell victim to that. As in life, you live and learn, but in the long one, once is became apparent they were a fraud, they became the big loser. They may get their two minutes of fame, but they then become outcasts in the hobby. Keep posting pictures, and I hope you can join us Labor Day 2009 in Collinsville. BTW, your car would sure look neat lined up nest to other B/M cars at the track. ![]()

[/ QUOTE ] The only thing I could add to that would be M22Mike's statement about the "Fun Factor". Guaranteed to have more smiles per hour than anywhere else in the country that weekend. Plus, there's usually a good contingent from your part of the country heading out this way. Safety in numbers as you travel. Hope you can make it.

I agree with the fun factor, there is no denying that! I am going to sign up as a member as well as sign up for the SCR. I cant promise anything since around that time we were planning a family vacation. I would like to get my dad and uncle to go as well. Becoming a member is the least i can do with all the help i have received and all the input i will be asking for in the future.

I will have to check on teh Rallys, can anyone tell if it was on option on the sales sheet? As for the above question, I would be guessing if i answered that. But i thought they were ordered with the 396...but again each one seems different so again i am passing this to someone more informative.

Can you post a shot of the trim tag ? Or check to see if there is a X66 or X22 code there. My guess it's X22, assuming the car always had the Z21 brigt trim. Mike ![]() |

I assume they were wide if they had to radius the wheelwells |

Awesome car since everyone has been inviting you to shows, how about a local one. The GM/Camaro National in Carlisle 6/26-28 We can work on getting you a spot inside a building.
