Man, that's a long way to travel. I've never been, but would consider it, if it were closer.

Been to the Z06Fest each of the last two years, and am getting geared up for this year (July 20-23).

Had really a great time with the gang from the Z06vette.com website, under the "arches" at the Hampton Inn.

Some of the events:

-AutoX at Beechbend Track
-1/4 drags at Beechbend Track
-Several 1/2 day spirited trips to local sites (Makers Mark Distillery)
-Some unsanctioned spirited backroads treks

And this year on Wednesday before the Fest there is a DE event scheduled at the Nashville track through Phil Wicks Driving Academy.

Oh Yea!! and there is the National Corvette Museum, numerous speakers, and I believe the Assembly Plant will just be (hopefully) gearing up/starting production of the new C6 Z06.

Go to either www.z06vette.com or the NCM website for schedule of events and info.
