Just wanted to bump this up to the top. Happy Easter everyone!

This has been posted on a few other forums, and seems to be getting a good response. If you are on other forums, and want to post up the information, please feel free to do so.

Also, good luck Kyle!

Happy Easter to you too Ed.

I stopped a guy leaving my apartment complex in a 2010 SS and told him he needed to come to the cruise. Luckily I still had a flier to give him. lol

A couple of days ago, I was coming home on US30 and cruised next to a ZR-1. Nice looking car but the old fart driving it didnt want to play. LOL
Other than Easter, that was my excitement for the week.

not sure how i have missed this thread for so long. I'll be down for doing this hopefully the weather cooperates. I'll try to sort through this thread and put together a tentative list of all who is coming so we can get a general idea plus itll help to get a rough count so were not leaving people behind...hopefully the parking lots arent taken up this time lol

also has anyone got that yellow z w/ the cowl hood w/ a flyer? I see it all the time around campus. Ed, I'll just use the flyer you sent me last spring and just modify it to work for this cruise
