Originally, we had planned to go there afterward, but Ken had too much going on and it didn't happen so we just met up at the weekly cars and coffee at his performance build shop. Torxila posted a thread on ctsvowners.com about it.
JD03Cobra will be posting a thread about the Dream Cruise in August. Put that one on your calendar.

The Lingenfelter Cars & Coffee is held each Saturday from 8-10 am during the summer months (though if you don't get there by at least 7:30 you'll be parking out in the street somewhere). It's held at Ken Lingenfelter's build shop in Wixom, Michigan. He provides coffee and a ton of donuts. If you think you've a cool car that you'd like to show off, then you're welcome. We see a lot of late-model GM stuff there plus Mustangs, Vipers, R8s, GT40s, and an occasional M3 ... mostly domestic, though. Ken usually has a few of his stuff being displayed in the parking lot somewhere, too.
If you don't know what the Woodward Dream Cruise is then there's no way I can do it justice by attempting to describe it here. However, I can tell you that through the graciousness of JD03Cobra (and his boss), we are allowed to congregate in the tree-shaded front lawn of his office building right on Woodward just north of the thickest part of the action (where you don't want to go anyway where the traffic only inches along) where we meet up and bring our families. There's usually free food, there's a lot of chairs though some bring their own, and we watch the never-ending parade of cars of all kinds stop at the traffic light right in front of us where many times they'll leave a little rubber on the pavement for us to enjoy, not to mention the occasional V that comes and goes throughout the afternoon. I think PISNUOFF and Nutz have done some rather memorable entrances and exits at recent Cruise meets. I also think last year we had close to 20 Vs plus a few other cool cars join us. Guys come from Canada, Cleveland, Chicago, St. Louis, Atlanta, New York City, and of course locally ... all with their Vs. With as many that showed up yesterday at this cars & coffee event, I figure we should be pushing 30 at the Dream Cruise this year.
(Sorry if that's more than you wanted to know.)
