Car meet - is this normal?

It was a corvette guy... nuff said!

I owned Corvette since 1962 and the Corvette people I know and was with would NEVER think of doing that. It isn't the car it's the person. Cars don't have ass#oles, people do. Please don't judge a person by their car, judge the person on their actions. Thank you.

Car meets are done in public spaces. So you can go and not ask anyone.

F him and the horse he rode in on

Hey all,
Just wanted to let y’all know about my recent car meet which was few weeks ago here in CO. I’m not trying to make this political thing but being a person of color it’s just not right for anybody to be treated this way.
So there was a small meet up organized for a 4 year old boy who’s undergoing 3rd heart surgery so his mom posted on Facebook forums requesting anyone with a car who’s willing to show up before his surgery. So I went there at mentioned time and there were other cars few bmw, corvettes, Hondas, Supra n then came few Lamborghini. Btw I was only Mustang there. Kid was looking at other cars n he asked if he could sit in n start up car I said of course n he did few revs.. all was good n then when the event almost ended I was driving back home this corvette guy said I wasn’t WELCOME in next meet.. I’m like WTF I told him I was there for kid not for him or his meet(he wasn’t even the organizer) Just wanted to put this out there still surprised as to how people still think man

He was mad because you revved - he didnt say anything about race - this has nothing to do with you being a person of color

As a person of color- stop bringing color into things where it doesnt need to be....your making us look bad

I do think the guy was a jerk for saying your not welcome without understanding the context
That being said - around here the car meets typically have VERY strict no revving rules - perhaps this one had one as well and he was an organizer?
