These are tumultuous times for General Motors and the
GM family of dealerships. I strongly encourage each of you to do
your part in continuing our legacy by supporting our sponsor and
also getting involved with some of the upcoming activities we
have planned such as Main Street, and the new Corvette Diner.
I would like to give a special THANK YOU to Viki Lassiter
and her team of helpers on throwing another fantastic and fun
Inaugural Party! I can’t wait to see what you come up with next
year!
I hope to bring a renewed sense of life to the club this

to hearing from you!
Here’s to another fantastic year of COCSD, let’s make it
great! Take care of each other,

FROM THE EDITOR…
Hello COCSD Members
In looking back as we begin our 53rd year as a car
club, and who as one of the first members would ever have
imagined our club reaching such heights! Based on our past
and now looking ahead, the legacy continues in COCSD.
The spirit is very much alive and strong. Like the Corvette’s
C1 thru C7, COCSD also has it’s generations.

JULY ANNIVERSARIES
With our own heritage, with our sons, daughters,
and grandchildren, just appreciating being a part of history
and however you see it, COCSD has made its mark and
continues to spread itself in our community and abroad. I am
very proud to be a member of COCSD and to serve in the
club. I have met many new friends and shared many events
and runs. So when I see members celebrating 51 years, I
ask myself what COCSD is going to be like 50 years from
now. My children or grandchildren may be driving my car to
a parade, or maybe they will have there own “High tech”
Vette. COCSD values are here to stay and I thank the oldest
members for keeping the wave alive and waving!

A note regarding our sponsors and advertisers.
Please support them. Our tradition to do fund raisers every
year requires more money each time. When we ask for donations, our sponsors and advertisers are there for us. Be
there for them through supporting their businesses. Always
consider them your first choice. Take care of them, and they
will help take care of our club!
Thank you
Take care and safe driving!

A Warning From The Police…
Clarification on Dues “Don’t Worry”
By now you have probably received your dues letter for the
2009/2010 COCSD year and are wondering about having to pay
by July 1 or have a $5 penalty. Well, don't worry! The late fee
has been dropped. The reason for the confusion is that we were
late getting the dues letters out because of the delayed officer
election and the letters had already been stuffed and
sealed. SOOO - don't worry. Just send in your dues and forget
about the late fee. This is what sometimes happens when you
have a volunteer organization fully staffed by volunteers - AND
WE ARE SORRY FOR THE CONFUSION. WE NEED YOUR
CONTINUED SUPPORT AND THANK YOU FOR IT.
—— COCSD

Share this information with family and friends, especially to women. A purse contains all kinds of Personal
information and identification documents, and you certainly do not want this to fall into the wrong hands.
Please keep this going.
Warning..!!!!
Warning..!!!!
Warning..!!!!
Just last weekend on Friday night we parked in a public
Parking area. As we drove away I noticed a sticker on
the Rear window of the car. When I took it off after I got
home, It was a receipt for gas. Luckily my friend told me
not to Stop as it could be someone waiting for me to get
out of the Car Then we received this email yesterday:
WARNING FROM POLICE
THIS APPLIES TO BOTH WOMEN AND MEN
BEWARE OF PAPER ON THE BACK WINDOW
OF YOUR VEHICLE-NEW WAY TO DO CARJACKINGS (NOT A JOKE)
The Pop Tops for Ronald McDonald
House Charity
Collect just the pop tops as it contains more aluminum by weight.
Most of our members drink sodas or
have pets or eat Spam or soup that
has a pop top. If they would take a
plastic zip lock bag and pull the tops off the cans
bring them to the meeting and I will get them to
Ronald McDonald House. We may set up a run for
the first time we take tops to them. I will also try to get
several Ronald McDonald pop top Houses to distribute to members that want to take them to work to collect tops. If you have a favorite bar, or place that uses
or sells Beer or Pop and would collect the tops it
would be appreciated. My understanding is they get
over $15,000 a year for turning in the tops.
Heads up everyone! Please, keep this circulating.... You
walk Across the parking lot, unlock your car and get inside. You Start the engine and shift into Reverse. When
you look into the rearview mirror to back out of your
Parking space, you notice a piece of paper stuck to the
middle of the rear window.
So, you shift into Park, unlock your Doors, and jump out
of your car to remove that pa per (or whatever it is) that
is obstructing your view. When you reach The back of
your car, that is when the carjackers appear out of nowhere, jump into your car and take off.
They practically mow you down as they speed off in your
car. and guess what, ladies? I bet your purse is still in
the car. so now the carjacker has your car, your home
address, your money, and your keys. Your home and
your whole identity are now compromised!
BEWARE OF THIS NEW SCHEME
THAT IS NOW BEING USED
It is easy to do and helps the family's of children at
the hospital have a room for free to stay while their If you see a piece of paper stuck to your back window,
just drive away. Remove the paper later. Thank you.

Marine Corps beats working for old man Minch by a mile. Tell
them to join up quick before all of the places are filled.
I was restless at first because you get to stay in bed till nearly 6
a.m. But I am getting so I like to sleep late. Tell Walt and Elmer all
you do before breakfast is smooth your cot, and shine some
things. No hogs to slop, feed to pitch, mash to mix, wood to split,
fire to lay. Practically nothing..
Men got to shave but it is not so bad, there's warm water. Breakfast is strong on trimmings like fruit juice, cereal, eggs, bacon, etc.,
but kind of weak on chops, potatoes, ham, steak, fried eggplant,
pie and other regular food, but tell Walt and Elmer you can always
sit by the two city boys that live on coffee. Their food, plus
yours, holds you until noon when you get fed again. It's no wonder these city boys can't walk much.

Chevrolet builds 1,500,000th Corvette
DETROIT - At the June meeting
of the Greater Atlanta Automotive Media Association, Karen
Rafferty, Chevrolet Product
Marketing Director, today announced the recent production
of the 1,500,000th Corvette at
GM Bowling Green Assembly.
2010 “Build Your Own” Z06
Bowling Green, KY – The National Corvette Museum has begun a new raffle fundraiser limited to only 500 tickets to be
sold on a chance to “Build Your Own” 2010 Z06 Corvette. This
raffle gives the winner the opportunity to select from current
model year color and options selections to build it to their preference. The winner of the “Build Your Own” Z06 Corvette
will be drawn on Thursday, July 23 at 2:00 p.m. CT.
Winner need not be present to win. Tickets are available at $500 each.
"The 1.5 millionth Corvette is a
great example of how Chevy is
America's Brand," Rafferty said.
"For nearly 60 years we have
built America's Sports Car and
this milestone is a solid proof
point."
“Our raffle fundraisers are a tremendous help to the Museum
and a large part of our planning and daily operation funds,”
states NCM Executive Director, Wendell Strode. "This particular raffle gives the winner a chance to build it their way and
everyone has a favorite color, so it is quite an exciting opportunity. With odds of only 500 tickets being sold, it also makes the
chances of winning even better. We appreciate the help of everyone who helps us by purchasing and selling tickets."
The 1.5 millionth Corvette, built
on May 28, is a white convertible 3LT with red interior and
black top (similar to the first, 500,000th and 1 millionth Corvettes built in 1953, 1977 and 1992 respectively). The first Corvette rolled off the assembly line on June 30, 1953.
The raffle winner will also enjoy the benefits and excitement of
taking delivery of their new Corvette at the Museum as part of
the “R8C Museum Delivery” experience. A VIP tour of the Museum and Corvette Assembly Plant, one-year individual membership to the Museum, hands-on training/instruction by a NCM
delivery team member, program decal and a wall plaque are all
part of the Museum Delivery experience that is available exclusively through the Museum.

Hours of Le

At 21:36, Fassler radioed the crew that he was experiencing
shifting problems. The gearbox problem intensified, and the car
was stranded near the pit lane entrance when it lost drive to the
rear wheels. In contrast, the No. 63 Corvette had a trouble-free
run throughout the grueling 24-hour race, making 32 pit stops
and never going into the garage for repairs. O'Connell and Garcia drove the closing stints in the race when Magnussen became ill.
"It was a good fight," said Fassler. "Sure it was difficult to race
your teammate hard, but when we went out of the chicane he
was really fair and he left me space. I enjoyed leading the 24
Hours of Le Mans, and I came very close to reaching one of the
goals I want to achieve in my life. I was only two hours away,

CORVETTE RACING QUOTES:
"It seemed like we were racing against the pace car all day.
We'd lose two minutes, catch back up, and then lose two minutes again. The team did a very good job, we never gave up,
and what happened today is just part of racing. We are professionals and have to accept it - but to be honest, you have to be
disappointed when you push hard and don't win."
Jan Magnussen, No. 63 Compuware Corvette C6.R: "Four Le
Mans wins feels absolutely great. My role in this one was for
only half the race. I really have to thank Johnny and Antonio for
working so hard during the last half of the race. Also a special
mention to my crew chief Dan Binks. Standing on the victory
podium at Le Mans is just amazing, and I hope that we can
carry on."
Doug Louth, Corvette Racing Engineering Director: "It was
easy to stay awake this morning because there was a lot happening. It couldn't have been any closer between the two Corvettes - if they had both run to the finish, it would have come
down to the wire. There were a lot of possible scenarios with pit
stops and tires. Unfortunately that didn't happen, but Corvette
C6.Rs finished first and second."
Johnny O'Connell, No.63 Compuware Corvette C6.R:
"Winning at Le Mans is hard because it's all about pushing as
hard as you can while being perfect with your technique and
taking care of the car. I think the three of us did that, even when
we were wiped out and tired. The guys in the No.64 Corvette
might have had a little more mid-corner grip than us, so we had
to push every minute. When you do that, sometimes you make
mistakes, but the No.63 finished the race as pretty as it started
it."
Dan Binks, Crew Chief, Corvette C6.R No. 63: "Winning Le
Mans is so unbelievable that I can't even talk about it. All of the
people here worked their butts off, and we're just the guys who
show up at the track. There are dozens of guys back in the shop
working on this stuff."
Antonio Garcia, No. 63 Compuware Corvette C6.R: "I'll tell
you tomorrow when I wake up what it means to win Le Mans
twice. This is my third 24-hour race win a row - I won Le Mans
last year and Daytona 24 this year. I cannot ask for anything
else. Corvette Racing gave me a car and a crew that worked
perfectly, and I really appreciate it. During the night and this
morning, I was up to my best. That's what a proper team needs
to be - everyone giving 100 percent."
Submitted by Ron Hutchinson
Oliver Gavin, No. 64 Compuware Corvette C6.R: "It didn't
seem to matter what we did today, it was something just ready
to trip us up, whether it was punctures or safety cars or this
gearbox problem. I think that Olivier, Marcel and myself had
driven well throughout the race, and it was going to be extremely close at the finish. It was going to come down two cars
racing at the end of the race, which is quite unusual here at Le
Mans. I really thought we had a great shot at it today, after we
kept clawing back and finally pulled away, but then the final card
played by Lady Luck was all bad luck. It's desperately disappointing."
Olivier Beretta, No. 64 Compuware Corvette C6.R: "The car
was good, then I had a puncture and my car was starting to be
difficult, so they called me in and changed the tire. On the restart, I made the pass on the No. 63 Corvette before the Ford
chicane. There was a lot of confusion and I just put the throttle
flat on the floor."

ACTIVITIES CORNER
COCSD ACTIVITIES
JULY – This month we will see the completion of the COCSD
Club Room in the new Corvette Diner at Liberty Station. Lots
of work has gone into this project by the committee members
and it will be something to showcase our club, our history, who
we are and what we do. We still need “worker bees” to help
finish this room. We will have some scheduled “work days” to
do our part in this room. If you can paint, hammer, hang pictures or just be a “gofer”, please contact either Craig Moya
(619-660-8071), Jim Lassiter (619-749-2416), Eunice Magill
(619-397-5518) or Don Evans (858-51-0609). They will be
glad to get your help.
You will be proud of COCSD when you see “our” room

time. Sign up for this event will be coming.
December19th COCSD will have an overnight to the Nethercutt Museum in Sylmar on Saturday, 12/19 and the Reagan
Library in Simi Valley on Sunday, 12/20. Both of these venues
will be decorated for Christmas. The Reagan Library will have

Museum is one of the premier classic auto collections in the
world. They are often winners at the classic auto show at Pebble Beach and if you like classic cars from around the world,
all in like new condition, don’t miss this. We will stay in a motel just a few minutes from the Reagan Library. The trip has

AUGUST 9th The REALY BIG SHOE this month is MAIN
STREET AMERICA. With the economic situation we are not
getting the support we had in the past from sponsors and contributors. This means we need to step up as a club and get
behind MSA. Do this by signing up your Corvette NOW. Your
registration fee is needed to offset the reduced funding from
sponsors. We need these funds now so have enough to offset
our initial costs. Currently we have 26 club members signed
up and we can do better. Please get your registration in
ASAP, and thanks for responding.
August 4th it is COCSD Night at the Chula Vista “Blast From
The Past” show on Main Street Chula Vista. No sign up - just
show up. Details on time and location will be coming. We had
a good turn out last year and hope to repeat this year. It is a
great way to spend an evening with Corvette people.
August 15th is the third and last COCSD night at the drive in
movies. This is your last chance to see a good movie under
the stars. See July 11th above.
August 28th (10) COCSD members will start on an epic voyage to Bowling Green, Kentucky for the national caravan to
the 15 Anniversary of the National Corvette Museum. Expectations are that there will be 250 Corvettes from Southern California/Southern Nevada and 4,000 to 5,000 Corvettes at Bowling Green. Many activities are planned along the route and at
the event. It is not too late to sign up, and if interested, call
Don Evans at 858-451-0609.

We still have plenty of merchandise for
sale. T-shirts, caps, and ladies’ tops seem
to be the hot items, with the exception that
the meeting on the 13th moved a lot of
weather-specific merchandise (like fleece
jackets).
We have sold the last of the club watches
and the license plate frames. If you need
these, see Cat Guiant and she will start an order list. As soon
as we get enough people interested, we will re-order.
We are starting another “club jacket order sheet.’ See Cat if
you want to order one. Last order was $87. We must have at

General Motors can clearly use all the money it can get, and for
the 2010 model year, you’ll have to fork over more of it to get
behind the wheel of a ZR1. The 2010 638 hp supercar will cost
you $109,530, an increase of $2910 over last year’s model.
A larger MSRP isn’t a good thing, but according to Corvette
Blogger, many dealers were already charging $10,000 over

getting a little bigger piece of the action.
For all that dough, you still get the most powerful production

model now comes with standatd side curtain airbags, launch

PTMS, by the way, gives the driver more control over traction
settings when in competition mode. Also new for 2010 is the
economic troubles. With the overall market shuddering in the
wake of myriad disasters, enthusiasts looking to restore their
automotive passion and collector cars came through decidedly.
Despite a small dip in retail sales, the restoration marketplace
survived 2008 with $1.45 billion in retail sales, just 3% off the
previous year—not bad considering how other parts of the industry ended the year. One of the many reasons for this stability is the types of consumers who participate in the restoration

qualifying was completed, each group ran a 16-lap race for

Flag Day
Parade
Opening Celebration! The Diner is scheduled to be open on Monday, but the official celebration is Saturday, July 11th. They have
asked COCSD to have a Corvette display as part of the celebration. There is room for at least 40 Corvettes in the display.
If you are interested in participating in the display, please let me know ASAP. If you signed up at the June general meeting, you
are good to go and don't need to contact me. I will be setting up the parking lot so that the Corvettes will be placed in chronological
order. You DO NOT need to be a part of the display to take part in the celebration. There are literally acres of parking within a very
short distance of the Diner. The celebration begins at 11 am, but we need to be there at 10 am to get the cars set before the general
public and probably the local news media arrives. You can meet me there at 10 am (please don't come earlier unless I specifically ask
you to do so), or join Dan Wheeler at the Mission Bay Visitors Center at 9 am. That group will be departing promptly at 9:30 so as to be
able to meet me at the Corvette Diner by 10 am.
Dan's direction to the Mission Bay Visitor's Center:
Traveling North or South on Interstate 5 take exit 22. If coming from the South turn left on Clairemont Drive and the Visitors Center is
directly in front of you. If going south on Interstate 5 turn right on Clairemont Drive and again the Visitors Center is right there.
