<CORSA Chapters> Making CORSA Conventions Appeal to Younger Members.

[TIM MAHLER]

Hmmm. A "driver" class for car display. And or. Best barn find? 

Ok. Too much thinking out loud. But may be worth a try....maybe at a local event or mini. We have so many classes now in some events that it is mind boggling. And trophy expensive. 

Tim Mahler. 1 nice driver. 1 so so show car

They could  but on "Custom" tech sessions.... be in charge of their own area at the car display.  Hmmm...If all the SIGS were in charge of their own display... sorry just thinking out loud.

Most of the people in his age group do not have enough time and incometo build or buy a concours-winning Corvair.  They are busy raising families and paying the bills.  They treasure their Corvairs but they are not in a position to spend large amounts of money to restore them.  And often, they don't want to.  They like them just the way they are, patina and all.

Publicity for Ageless to Anarchy is geared toward any and all types ofCorvairs – even those that need to be "towed-in".

They can enter their Corvairs - concours or not - in the autocross, rally, economy run, and car display and do well.  This is a point that needs to be made by CORSAand the host chapters in their convention publicity.
