V-Club Newsroom

The Cadillac V-Club Board of Directors unanimously approved Earl Parmer as the new Chapter Director for Houston.  Earl and his wife Shanna have been members of the V-Club since 2017 and own a mildly modified but very fast 2015 CTS-V Coupe built by V-Club sponsor Boost Mode Racing. 

Earl and Shanna have been very active in the V-Club attending numerous national, regional and local events since first becoming members at the 2017 Rolex 24 Hour Cadillac V-Corral event in Daytona.   We are excited to have Earl join the leadership team and have no doubt that the Houston Chapter will continue to grow as Earl and Shanna have expressed their desire and commitment to plan activities that will appeal to all members.

We also want to take this opportunity to thank Jason Mathews for serving as the Chapter Director for Houston for the past year and his desire to continue supporting the V-Club.  For personal reasons, Jason recently resigned but plans to remain an active member.

John Charpentier was recently nominated by the Cadillac V-Club Board of Directors as the Chapter Director for the Seattle, Washington.  John joined the V-Club in November of 2018 and through his recruitment efforts there are now 12 members who will be assigned to this new chapter.

John also helped bring on board a new sponsor, Creative Steel who is located in Salem, Oregon.  Now that the local chapter has been launched, John will be the focal point for planning and scheduling quarterly meet 'n greet events where a meal will be provided to local chapter members compliments of the Cadillac V-Club.  John will be attending local car meets and events so if you are located in the Seattle area and are interested in learning more about the Cadillac V-Club, you can connect with him on the PNW V-Owners Faceboook page.

Effective immediately Jamie Rawlyck has been nominated by the Cadillac V-Club Board of Directors to fill the position recently vacated by Dustin Mohan.  Dustin recently resigned after selling his ATS-V Coupe.  Dustin served as the DFW Chapter Director for almost 3 years and will certainly be missed by all of the members who came to know and admire him for his outgoing personality and his leadership in the V-Club.

Jamie has been an active member of the V-Club since October of 2017 and currently owns 2 CTS-V's, a highly modified 2009 CTS-V sedan and a 2011 LSX 434 twin turbo coupe.  Jamie and his wife Silvia reside in Fort Worth, Texas along with their two children, Maximillian and Zara.  Jamie will be attending the upcoming Fort Worth Cars and Coffee event later this month at Texas Motor Speedway so if you are a member of the V-Club or interested becoming member, be sure to stop by and introduce yourself to Jamie.

Congratulations to Chuck McCormick who recently purchased a new 2018 Limited Edition Glacier White CTS-V on 11/07/2017 from Covert Cadillac, our V-Club sponsor in Austin.  Chuck's V is #108 of only 115 made by Cadillac.

The Sales Rep was Jeff Perantoni, who Chuck characterized as "a dynamite sales pro and an overall great guy".  Chuck stated that everyone at Covert made the whole process a total pleasure and he is excited to have the pleasure of owning the first one sold in Austin!  Covert was allocated 2 Limited Edition models and the the 2nd sold in December. Since Cadillac has continued to include the complimentary trip to the Cadillac V-Performance Academy in Pahrump, Nevada, Chuck will be scheduling his trip soon!

Chuck recommends that any V-Club member in Austin who is interested in checking out the new 2018 V’s ask for Jeff Perantoni.   Jeff  is extremely knowledgeable about the V-Series models!

Chuck also mentioned that If you need service, the Cadillac V specialist to contact is Adam Deleon.  Adam has been Chuck's service rep since he purchased his first CTS-V in 2012 and has always provided exceptional service and support.

Congratulations to all prize winners!

The DFW Chapter of the Cadillac V-Club once again held it's annual holiday banquet at Boi 'Na Braza in Grapevine, Texas on Sunday evening, December 10.  The room was packed with over 90 attendees and the meal was once again fantastic... "all you can eat carved meet of your choice", huge salad bar and fantastic desserts capped off the dinner menu.

After a round of trivia questions where the member with the successful answer received a prize, a drawing was held to determine the winner of the ticket package for two to any IMSA V-Corral event in 2018.  Misty Young was the lucky winner and her plan is to attend the upcoming Rolex 24-hour IMSA race in Daytona where the Action Express and Taylor Racing teams will be competing for Cadillac.

All V-Club members who attended this holiday banquet along with the upcoming holiday banquet attendees in Houston, Austin and San Antonio will be entered in a random drawing to be held on Monday evening, December 18 at 7:00PM for a fully paid tuition trip (including meals and lodging) to attend the two day Cadillac V-Series Academy in Pahrump, Nevada. Airfare not included.  Value of trip is $3,100.00.

Each eligible entry will be assigned a number from 1 to X where X is the total number entries.  The winner of the V-Performance Academy trip will be randomly selected via a "live feed" from our Cadillac V-Club Facebook page using an online random number generator. 

Due to the recent move to East Texas by San Antonio Chapter Director Rick Knetsch,  James Corona has been nominated and has accepted the position of Director of the San Antonio Chapter of the Cadillac V-Club.  James has been a member of the V-Club since 2014 and owns a 2011 CTS-V Wagon that is one very impressive 10-second V.  He and his sons have been very active in the V-Club and we are excited to have James join the leadership team.

Rick will be residing in the Kilgore, Texas area where he plans to continue as a Chapter Director and launch an East Texas Chapter of the Cadillac V-Club. Between Tyler and Longview, there are quite a few Cadillac V's and there are two Cadillac dealerships, Orr Cadillac in Longview and Wagner Cadillac in Tyler which have already expressed an interest in supporting the V-Club.
