YOUR STORY MATTERS

Editor's Note

Some cars carry more than miles. For Michelle "Steadyrock" Rockstad, her 2007 Lemans Blue Corvette carries a father's love, a son's birth year, and every mile between grief and healing. She is IconiQ's only female driver — and she shows up, top down, wind in her face, closer to him with every turn.

RVRN Feature Interview

Michelle R. & 2007 Corvette C6

01

The First Ride

An exclusive interview with our featured VIP
Some people fall in love with cars from spec sheets. Others from TV. For Michelle R., it happened in the passenger seat of a red-on-red '76 Stingray — her father behind the wheel, the world moving past in a blur of chrome and color. That moment never left her. And when her father passed in 2020, he left her something she hadn't expected: a 2007 Lemans Blue Corvette. He'd bought that specific year for a reason — it was the year her son was born. They were close, her father and her son, right up until the end.

Top down, wind in my face — those moments make me feel closer to my father. Jeezy said it best: "ride with the top down so I'm closer to God." That line hits different when you are speaking to ones you can't see. But man, you can feel their presence.

2020 was a hard year. A loss. A pandemic. A life that needed something to hold onto. She found it behind the wheel.

Corvette therapy is a real thing, she'll tell you. Ask anyone who has one.

02

Meet Steadyrock

An exclusive interview with our featured VIP
She named her Steadyrock — and she be steady rockin'. Lemans Blue, LS2 engine, tan convertible top, chrome rims that catch sunlight like they were made for it. Clean, classic, and unapologetically herself.

She is pretty on the outside with some imperfections. Time and age without cosmetic interventions will never be perfect. But I am not looking for perfection. Tough under the hood, likes to go fast — and keeps on rockin', rain or shine.

On wheels: Michelle loves her chrome rims, simple and shining. If she ever upgrades, she'd stay chrome. Although as a female, skirts with built-in shorts have been my best friend.

Feminine yet functional. Some things don't change.

35 New Brothers

An exclusive interview with our featured VIP
Michelle joined IconiQ in October 2024. Her first real club activity was the MSU Homecoming Parade — and they didn't just show up. They won Best Community Group. The way the crowd responded, the way people looked at them, the kids giving thumbs up from the sidewalk — she was hooked. She came from a small immediate family. After joining, she gained 35 brothers overnight. As one member told her directly: "Don't play about me."

What means the most to me about the club is undoubtedly the people. The car world is so diverse — all ages, races, and genders, all coming together for a common interest. We celebrate highs, and pray in the lows.

Being the only female driver in the club? She wears it proudly. Especially when young girls are in the crowd. Cars are not exclusive to males. She's learning constantly, asking questions, and never once made to feel like she should know less.

A feminine touch never hurts.

2026: Be There or Be Square

She's not giving too much away. But at the last meeting, she felt it — the energy in the room, the grind the board has already put in, the scale of what's coming.

July 24–25, 2026. Eastwood Towne Center. From a massive light show featuring PJ's Towing, to the main event at Dave & Buster's and NCG Cinema. Proceeds going to charity. A statement, not just a show.

This is not going to be like a car show anyone has ever seen. We are going to go hard to make it unforgettable. Be there or be square is all I'll say about that right now.

Her hope for anyone who walks through those gates: that they feel the passion. The love. The respect the members have for each other — and how it filters out to everyone they meet.

Iconiq:Thank you again for your trust and collaboration.
RVRN is committed to growing together with our partners and delivering outstanding products and value.

Brand Letter

Iconiq:The car is the introduction. The people are why you stay.
