So, there's two. how many more?
This class (whether it's the Corvette Challenge version, the QTP EFI version or the Friday night version) is already a runaway hit in my opinion. As (or should I if?) the economy gets better and more people buy used C5s and C6s at good prices leaving them more $ to put into making the car fast, these turnouts will only get better.

I don't think he actually made out with anyone down there (though he did room with Edgar LOL ) but he did quite well when it came to the racing part of it.

I'll tell you all about it next time I see you.
Are you coming out tomorrow?
At least just to watch? (I know you are not racing from your other post)

But in short, it was a lot of fun.
Since you have a trailer and all that good stuff, you have to roll out to one of these bigger events.
The NMCA is really catering to Late model cars these days.

It is a great time.

Slim chance of NMCA going to Atco, they go to Maple Grove in PA now.
Maybe down the road, but not for 2010.

I will be there this Saturday.
Either way you have to show.
It will be a good time.

Let me know if you are going to bring your daughter?

I am participating in this cruise thing on Sunday its a pretty intense ride, country roads we start off in Bridgewater and we go through about 30 miles worth of fun.

Last time I did it on bald Hoosiers and skinnies. This time no way I want to take a few turns hard. Its really a great ride all are welcome to come. we end up at round valley reservoir boat ramp. Its beautiful there
