If you can go friday or saturday, do it. Thursday is kind of a bare-bones operation in comparison. Many of the vendors don't even show up until friday. We will be rolling into town late thursday afternoon, but not going to the show until friday. For your first time going, I highly recommend finding a way to go friday and/or saturday. Don't take thursday as an accurate representation of the whole show. Just my 2 cents. Either way, have a great time! :thumbsup:

Come by the Adam's tent during the show and see how well it cleans up after driving through NW Illinois bug colonies!

Well, I can explain ...
My poor, underpowered C4 takes so much effort to get going, that when I hopped into the LS2 powered C6, and got into that grabby clutch (and very sensitive throttle), I just couldn't help but make smoke!
I also discovered how to make it stall today ...
My caravan buddy had to make a quick stop to reorganize his interior after a particularly harrowing curve, so I turned around to see what was up. He was safely on the shoulder, while I wound up in a gravel covered section of the road. As I was attempting to feather my way back onto solid road, I gave it what I considered a judicious amount of throttle, which the traction control system then interpreted as "you've bagged your limit, boy!", and gave me a red flag ... when the car lurched, I let off the throtle, and the little red light on the push to start button lit up ... a quick press of the button solved that little problem, and I successfully negotiated my way through the gravel by pulling off in SECOND gear.
That isn't quite the way I remember it. My recollection is a wizened old man standing next to his nifty looking '72 saying something to the effect of how much he loves to be heat soaked in his un air conditioned car.bojvette said:
I remember a mumbled phrase about "if you ain't hot, sweaty, uncomfortable, and about to die of heat stroke, you're not living the Corvette dream, Sonny!"
And after that magnificent gift I bestowed upon you, too!
Here's a pic of the DC Crew that showed up on Thursday ...
and here's a shot of a nice looking C2 ...
