The SCW is no longer a sponsor. Hopefully just temporary.

Now this can not be a GOOD sign. If there is No SCW what cool cars are we going to look at? The Reunion will be ALOT thinner. Or maybe the west coast can bring more of the pro touring kind of cars to the show that would be AWESOME. Well no more Vette Fest and NO reunions to go to guess alot of east coast guys and gals will get to save alot of fuel not having to go the the Midwest. This board is going DOWN HILL in a HURRY. But like they say ONE door close's and another door OPENS. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbsdown.gif

Wasn't meant to be Funny. Seems thats where this show has been heading. Just calling it as i see it, different strokes for different folks. I recall years ago that this show was to be all about Supercars of the Past and maybe some more present. Certainly not Pro touring cars and the Unusual circus cars. Didn't think i had to travel half way cross the country to see what i can go to the local book stand and thumb through the Latest HOT ROD mag and find. Just calling it as i see it. This is just MY OPINION and iam sure there are alot of fine people on this board that want to see this stuff and who am i to Judge.

I agree with Brian, when you go to a venue like the SC Reunion I love to look at just exactly that, "Super Cars." Because they are so rare like the Yenkos, Motions etc... and the old drag cars with race history like the Red Alert, Old Gibb/Harrell race car like Howie's and many others. These are just too cool!! Even more fun watching these cars drag race!!

Where else can you see all of these cars together?? You certainly can't go up to your local cruise nite and see all of these great cars!!

I agree with Tom, hopefully the SCW will be back as a sponsor soon!! Great guys and great restos!!

I joined this site for the lack of protouring stuff, If I see another 69 Camaro with a LS engine in it I will puke, but hey I guess it's the new 32 ford with a tune port... Im stuck in the west coast and thats the majority I see. I think this site is a great place with a huge amount of knowledge and good people, I would like to make it to a reunion but if it was filled with P/T stuff would be disappointing http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/no.gif

Although there may or may not be a Vette Fest, there will indeed be a show that not only welcomes, but will feature Supercars and the very best Muscle Cars...from not only Chevy but other manufacturers as well.

As Kwhizz stated, "the world does not revolve around SCW" (or Vette Fest or SCR, or me or anyone else). Let's focus on what brought us all together in the first place and that is not just the cars, but the people who share the passion for various things that happen to have four wheels, whether Super Cars, Muscle Cars, Pro Touring cars or ??

One door closed, and another one indeed swung open.

My apology for swinging slightly off topic.

More info to follow soon. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/3gears.gif

As per the SCR, and I guess this site as a whole, yes, we have branched out to include lots of other makes, models, and yes, pro-touring, but IMO, this has helped in the tremendous growth the club has enjoyed. I love the Supercars as much as anyone, obvious by my dedication to the club and SCR for the past 12 years, but as with many other members, I enjoy what is considered non Supercars, AKA, “Red Alert”. I have done my best to balance the two, and in my humble opinion, have done a decent job.

I hope everyone will sit back and not say something they will regret later, instead let the parties involved sort though, and hopefully work things out, where we can all enjoy our hobby as one.

Brian..I have brought a Pro-Touring car to the Reunion maybe twice ? When I did it was because the car was already in the midwest. I have also brought ZL1,the 67 Pace car, The SuperSnake, a Trans Am convert but you get bugged because I bring a car type you don't like. I have worked my ass off trying to moderate guys like you and figured bringing one of my non Supercars once in awhile wouldn't bother anyone and would be OK. Consider it a job perk if you want. You have seen how many other Pro-Touring cars at the Reunion ? I also ran a rental car down the strip at the reunion so I guess that must have really bugged you also. For those of you reading this that haven't actually been to the reunion, that is about the extent of the Pro-Touring car showings.

I don't know anything about this latest "auto drama"...but, I do know that for me the hobby is all about the people!!! The cars are just an excuse to get together with folks you enjoy spending time with...it's just that simple. I don't care if someone has a COPO or 6 cyl. granny as long as they are genuine and respectful of others.

People first..Cars second!!!

For those of you reading this who have not attended a SuperCar Reunion, here is the list of cars attending SCR11. IMO, still THE “ Super Car Reunion", with a little flavor added in. The non-supercar section, or member rides section, as we like to call it, was added to both this site and the SCR so more members could be an active part of the club. If this site and the SCR were an exclusive club, where membership required owning a "supercar", how many loyal members would we lose? Just a thought. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/scholar.gif

As we have done for the past 12 years, Rob and I will do our best to get as many "supercars" as possbile to attend SCR, along with a few other cool cars. I have no doubt SCR12 will be another fun event, even if it is just the three of us. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/naughty.gif http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif

This is a tremendous club and site. All of the parties mentioned have made significant contributions, from virtually day one, as have many of the other members, even those who have never owned a "Super Car" by definition.

I would travel to the SCR for any One of the multitude of reasons to participate.

1) The People

2) The Events

3) The Cars

4) etc..

I sincerely hope to see everyone as well as the cool stuff they may bring to SCR12.

Count us in too http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif

Tony, not sure why you interpreted the above posts that way. Everyone is welcome even ford lover http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif. All we ask is for everyone to follow the rules, and have fun which is what this hobby is about. I wish I could find a Tony Sucks Icon, and then you would feel the love, but this will do....

Tony, no thats not what anyone is saying.. I do not own a supercar and I belong to the site and am a member. There are lots of others also like this.. It's all about the hobby and people like the others have said.. I totally agree with that!

But with the Supercar Reunion Show its nice to see just that, Supercars... I know there were some stipulations as to what cars could be brought there.. This is still a great site with tons of knowledgeable people and where you can learn something new everyday about this hobby!! http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif

Haven't been online much recently....only to check on Charley's 70 Z28 and the recent Copo barn find, so I missed what has taken place.

I would like to say as someone who has been here for some time, I have always enjoyed seeing the Supercar Workshop work. I have learned a tremendous amount of knowledge from them and think they are a great asset to the site. Plus Brian and Joe are very good guys.

I don't know what the issue is but I truly hope it's something that will work itself out.

Just want to add my .02 for the hopeful return of Brian and Joe, aka The SCW.

Everybody here may be equal, but fact is that Brian and company is very influential in the SuperCar "hobby".

Many people will follow Brian's lead, whether it be here, there or where ever.

I have seen many leave this site over the years such as Kevin Suydam to name only one.

Camaros At Carlisle 1st Gen LEGENDS Judging lost BKH in 2008'. Somebody find the statistics of what % of 1st Gen LEGENDS entrants were SCW customers, since the classes inception. I greatly respect the man, and just dont want the "hobby" to lose a valuble asset.

I am asking that whomever can and will, extend an olive branch and bring the SCW, back. I would miss him eternally.

Sincerely, Chuck

i have been lurking here since the last reunion. i stumbled across the reunion by visiting friends in st.louis. we kept seeing trailer after trailer piling into gateway raceway. so we stopped in. truly a great race day. i am kind of saddened by the statement above about it being only for "supercars". (at least thats the way i took it) one of the neatest cars there wasn't a yenko,copo,gibb,nickey,berger or whatever else was there. it was a junior dragster !! it was painted like a yenko and had all the emblems and such. we spent most of the day watching this young man make his first attempts down the dragstrip. it was great to see. we talked with him and his father for some time and although they didnt have a 'supercar" it was great to see the youth starting to gain interest in this hobby we all love so much. so i hope that this doesnt turn away non supercar owners from being able to bring their own cars to this great race. i do believe that i did see on the dragster the super car workshop logo, that must mean that the guys from the SCW also want to see kids and families like this one continue to support this site and hobby for many years to come in the future. sorry my first post is so long. i hope that i didnt offend anyone with this post. i want to see all members car stay a part of the reunion. after all, they all are "supercars" in their own form.

It is and always has been about the people NOT the cars. I don't think I would even notice if there were no cars at the reunion........ok, maybe a little. The point is, ALL of my friends today are fellow car enthusiasts and most have come through this site. I very much enjoy seeing some of the other iron show up at the reunion and especially at the drag races. One of Annie's most enjoyable times was racing her Nova and that included the run against Charley's pace car with the top down and the flags waving. Great day. In that same breath I think most of us can honestly say we wait is suspense to see what the SCW guys are going to unload from the trailer and the best are when they are cars that are under construction. I think everyone would agree that they enjoy those times especially when the wheels almost came off Tommy K's unfinished car when we moved it for a photo shoot. Classic moment!

The point is, not all of us agree with or like everyone on the board but have to admit that virtually everyone here with rare exception brings something to the board. I think we all need to spend na little more time before hitting the keyboard and take a deep breath before stating things that are either hard to take back or should have just been kept to ourselves.

There is plenty of fighting going on oversees for things we stand for. Lets all try a little harder to get along on this side of the fence and not fight over what most would consider to be petty things in the whole scheme of things. Everyone has a personality, thank God and we all need to just relax a little and not get so bent out of shape all the time. I want nothing more than to see the sYc the same it was several years ago when the worst thing that was said on a thread was someone upset with themselves for not being the one to find the latest barn find. Without VetteFest and some other shows around anymore it is now more important than ever to have a great show at the SCR reunion with ALL......the past participants and many new ones.

After spending another week with Kwhizz and having some nice talks, I agree with him. There are WAY more important things in this life than squabling over small things and some of those important things can never be returned or replaced. Think about it guys...........

That's an AWESOME video Bruce!!! http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/BruceRocks.gif ... and I agree, VERY WELL said Rick! http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/worship.gif


Bill and I attended the Reunion the first year it was opened up to "other makes". I have to say that I was BLOWN AWAY by how well we were treated (by EVERYONE!) even though we brought a "Pontiac". We had a GREAT time and got to meet some really awesome people from this board. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif I will never forget the smile on Charley's face when we pulled up to the Gateway Center in Bill's Bobcat or all the fun we had while we were there. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/youguysrock.gif

As a guy who is an "outskirts" forum member who hasn't been to a SCR and does not own muscle cars but is a huge fan and really loves this site I (and a few others) need a bit of filling in. Why because SCW has removed their banner and I assume their sponsorship does that put the SCR in jeopardy? Were they a driving force in organizing the SCR?

The caliber of the members of this forum and the cars they own has always impressed me about his forum. It is truly the best source of muscle car information on the web. Hopefully one fo these days I can get myself to a SCr and meed some of you fellow car guys!!!

Yes..Brian and the SCW were a driving force in organizing the SCR.

No...the SCR is not in jeopardy. Dates are set, all the contracts are signed, and I have already heard from several folks who are making plans to attend.

To those who may not know, or remember, some of us have been trying to get Bill Porterfield to match race Mr. Howie at the reunion. Bill doesn't own the car anymore, so it's been a difficult task. Mr. Howie believes that they're avoiding him knowing that he will blow their doors off. I would urge anyone who might know Bill P. to bend his arm a little to try to make this happen. At the end of the day, should this happen, someone will truly be a sissylips.

Now on the topic at hand (hard to imagine I'd ever get off topic) I would sincerly hope that all grievences, and differences could be resolved in a positive manner. To all concerned, life is way to short to hate, or carry harsh feelings. I know everyone involved here, and there isn't a bad person in the lot of you. You've all helped us with what we do, and we consider you all our friends. Put your animosity aside. It's not worth it. Nothing will be gained, and much will be lost.You are better than this, and all of us have much to learn, and room to grow. And none of us will live long enough to know it all. I've been a small town mayor for over twenty years, and been called things to make even you guys blush, and I still don't hate anyone. Hell, sometimes I had it comming. Now if people like Howie, Cumby, and me, who agree on nothing, but still consider each other very, very, good friends can get along, lets look deep, and put this in the past, and move forward together. Life's to short. Take a breath, draw the line, step over, and move forward. The best days of this site are yet to come. And we need you all to be part of it. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif

I've read all of this and I'm still lost??? I hope that SCW comes back! I know I don't own any SuperCars, but it was, and has, been great to see all the works of art and "chat" with all of the people on this site! Tons of knowledge and great people! I know that most of my generation is into the fart pipe mufflers, but I have been hooked to V8 rumble and inline sixes, since I was knee high. I just want to say that I am here for all of the knowledge and to support the hobby with a great bunch of people. The only thing that can take it away is death and alzheimers.

I asked Tom to pull down the site for awhile to make some adjustments to my sponsor page. The page will be a view only page. I will continue to post information and text as in the past. I will not allow the SCW page or any other page for that matter on the sYc site to become a mud slinging battlefield. So I asked Tom to make these simple modifications to that sponsor page. As always, I only post to give useful information we find during the tear-down and restoration of the cars we love. So other than that, no changes are coming.

On a personal note, I want to thank the many people that emailed. PM'ed called etc during the down week. I love the sYc site and what its about. Many of you I have never met, but it does mean a great deal that you enjoy what we try and do for the hobby. One thing for certain, you really find out who your friends are, and find out even more about others. I heard some real good stories, REAL good. Since that is all I really want to say right now, let's get back to normal, whatever that may be....BKH http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif
