Organizing this meeting began a year ago, with the choice to come back to the 
Garda Lake area, where had been already hosted several of our wonderful events 
in 2000, 2003, 2005, 2006, 2007 and 2008.
In fact it is as if the lake felt the lack of gaiety and very numerous band of 
“Corvette People” running around its shores, receiving and giving lustrous to 
its natural surroundings and we have been somehow recalled.
Of course, after all those hits, being able not only to maintain the highest 
standard, but also trying to improve it,  would have been very difficult. It 
was a challenge to ourselves, which we would not have given away for any 
reason.
Presenting something different, besides something more, was imperative, also 
considering the actual economic situation. How to meet all the expectations 
involving and satisfying the largest number of participants?
Simple: offering a package inclusive of the best of the various expectations!
Beautiful lake scenery, starting with a pearl as Peschiera Del Garda, hotels 
at the top as the unique Parc Hotel, famous and sought restaurants like "I 
Pioppi" and "Al Frassino", the desire to unleash the exuberant power of our 
cars safely without the risk of speed cameras, on the well known racetrack as 
Modena's, exclusively reserved for the event, a visit to one of the most 
beautiful botanical garden in the world as the Sigurtà, have been winning 
choices for this meeting, certainly the one that has seen the largest number of 
participating cars.
136 (hundred thirty-six) cars, two-thirds Corvette and the rest Camaro, crews 
coming (as usual) from all over Europe, including England, Germany, Austria, 
Switzerland, the Netherlands, Slovakia and even from faraway Finland, beside 
(of course) Italians, were the seal of this event.
From a 1958 C1 Corvette  to a '65 to 67 C2, to the most powerful C6 ZR-1, the 
full range of Corvette production was present.
The truth of what we write is under the eyes of  everybody, pictures, movies, 
comments, from those written on various foreign forums to those left on social 
networks, to those given either personally or sent to us directely are the 
proof that we are without any doubt the point of reference of Corvette and 
Camaro world in Italy.
Although the official start of the meeting was scheduled for Saturday, it 
started already on Friday with the arrival and registration of several members, 
especially foreigners, who (after spending a relaxing day taking advantage of 
the hotel's facilities) joined the dinner we had arranged at the restaurant.
On Saturday morning, this incredible convoy about 2 km long, emerged from the 
beautiful Parc Hotel inbound Modena Autodrome. Upon entering the highway we 
were baptized by water coming down like hell; alarmed and a little annoyed by 
this, we called our friend Alberto at the track which with a quiet “We are in 
short sleeves, the sun shines and the track could not be more dry " soothed my 
disappointment turning it into joyness.
Arrived at the track the party could start, 4 hours on track exclusively 
reserved, gave people a way to vent the passion for speed, sneaking in properly 
competitive manner with opponent friends.
I can proudly say that the direction of the circuit has expressed 
congratulations for the serious, professional and fair conduct held by all our 
members.
After the track, we returned to the Parc Hotel where, on a wonderful rooftop 
terrace we were served a coffee break, shared comments and considerations as 
well as familiarized with new friends attending our event for the first time.
In the evening, dinner by the lake with priceless scenery, illuminated by the 
golden light of a postcard sunset, and prizes for the winners on the track 
laps.
Sunday morning, visiting the incredible Sigurtà Park, an oasis for body and 
soul rest, was particularly appreciated.
We closed the season with a lunch at the Ristorante Al Frassino, in an 
atmosphere of refined elegance for exchanging greetings.
Thanks to the participants and all the friends who have helped, in addition to 
CHD Tuning, our friend Loris Fregonese for sponsoring, and Claudio Cumini and 
Tania, the creators of the beautiful personalized alarm clocks that we have 
honored.
See you next year.
