Welcome to the Cedar Rapids Corvette Club (CRCC). Established in 1963,
CRCC is the largest Corvette Club in Iowa!
CRCC is dedicated to the joy of
Corvette ownership and helping those in need. In
addition to our monthly meetings, we enjoy dinner out
each month (maybe two), host autocross events at Hawkeye Downs Speedway, drive our Vettes in
parades, raise funds for charities, carry homecoming king and queen
candidates for local schools, colleges, and universities, dazzle
visitors at Lindale Mall during our annual "Cruisin' the Ave Charity Car Show" and generally
enjoy life behind the wheel of THE great American sports car
- Corvette!
The Cedar Rapids Corvette Club is
sponsored by Pat McGrath Chevyland.
