Classic Glass Corvette Club Plants Their Flag At The New Caffeine & Octane

Sometimes the most powerful concepts are the simplest.

Planting a flag and claiming territory is one of those. It’s an unspoken rule that when “terra nillius” (no man’s land) is found, the country that plants its flag on the soil first claims it.

Our best modern-day example would be when United States astronauts planted Old Glory on the moon. That simple act was both inspiring and visually profound on a national level.

While Classic Glass Corvette Club of Marietta (CGCC) didn’t plant their flag on a distant planet, they did lay symbolic claim to a portion of Caffeine & Octane’s new venue.

They also put everyone on notice that CGCC was committed to being a part of North America’s largest monthly gathering of car enthusiasts. That gesture wasn’t lost on the other automotive nameplates which were struggling to find their place at Town Center Mall.

Flag planting aside, the question we hear most is, “What was the C&O experience like at the new venue?”

Here are our impressions.

A Bite of the Market -Collector Car Trends for the Next Six Months by Mike Thies

As I am appraising vehicles, many folks ask me what the future holds. I tell here what I tell them. So often I am too close to the "real metal" to have much of a crystal ball and it's not my strength, anyway. However, when I stand back and do the research, sometimes a cloudy picture does come through. It seems to me that the last…
