Corvette Super Sports was organized
on April 18, 1959 at Don Steves Chevrolet in La Habra, California. Attendees
at that meeting included Carrol Shelby (of Cobra fame) and Bob Bondurant
(Driving School). Other notable persons who have been associated with
the club are Dave MacDonald (USAC Indy driver) and Bill Thomas (of Cheetah
fame). The club name was derived from the 1957 Corvette Super Sport
Racer.
In 1965 CSS incorporated as a non-profit organization
in the State of California, County of Orange. In the past the club has
belonged to Southern California Council of Sports Car Clubs (SCC SCC)
and Western States Corvette Council (WSCC). In 1988 the club joined
National Council of Corvette Clubs (NCCC) to which we currently belong.
We feel that we are one of the most well rounded clubs supporting charitable,
civic, and community activities; along with auto-sports events which
include car shows/displays, auto-crossing, rallyes, drag racing, road
racing, caravans, touring, cruise nights and pure socializing.
Our club designates an outside Event of the Month
to attend. We also have an in-club Monthly Social event planned by a
club member and we support whatever it might be! CSS promotes interacting
with and supporting of other clubs' events. We try our best to live
up to our name "SUPER SPORTS".
We meet and welcome Corvette owners and guests
to our meetings on the First Tuesday of each month at 7:00 PM at: SIZZLER
