I guess 10 rooms or less are left for the gathering of the C1 & C2 Forum Group. You may want to get your room fast if you plan on going. See first posy for room information.

Well shoot Mike, I'm going to miss you and the event again this year and it sounds like you're going to have a ball.
That weekend, is always the big race season ending Pure Stock Muscle Car Drag Race held in Stanton, Michigan. We usually get about 150 -175 very cool cars at the event and, well, racing my car is just more fun, what can I say? My heart will be with you though.
Stop by the shop on your way home Sunday if you get a chance. I'll be back by then.

Thomas are you going to do Bloomington Gold this year? If so I will be there with my grandson on Sat. he don't know it yet but he is going to drive my 67 Sunfire Vette around the Indy track and have his pic taken doing it. If you are going to be at Indy for the Vintage Races I will be there also with Brett who will be racing his Challenge Corvette and will be helping him in the pits with his car. When I go home on Sunday from Funfest I just take I 70 all the way to Indy.
That's the weekend for the Factory Stock muscle car drag racing at Martin Michigan. I swear it's a vast conspiracy to keep me from Corvette events and it's pretty annoying I'll tell you!
All is not lost however, Chris and I will be crewing at Indy again...
...for both Indy vintage events, the Open Wheel Challenge June 8-11 and the following week, 14-18 for the Brickyard Vintage Racing Invitational. We should be able to get together when you're there I would think, let's just plan on it.
I figured you take I 70 to Effingham so no worries. You and Bob will just have to make a special trip over sometime.
See you at Indy.
Cheers, Thomas

There have been sum 1140 hits on this thread checking out for the C1 & C2 Corvettes getting together this September at Corvette Funfest in Effingham IL. at Mid America Motorworks. I started out with a block of 20 rooms at the Best Western Hotel and last I heard is there were maybe 10 rooms left. I have not called to check and I will not for a while so that being said if there is or are any other members wanting to get together for this event you may want to get you a room now and register at Funfest. All that contact information in in the first post on this thread. Soon I will contact Mid America and have them hold a spot for all to park your cars and be together. I will post that information later so be on the lookout for it.

I was just contacted by Mia and she just told me that only 1 person has called to reserve a room and has others calling in and wanting rooms and she don't feel that it is fair to hold the rooms and know one is calling in to reserve them. So she is going to go ahead and rent out the rooms to first people calling in gets the rooms so if you plan

Mike,
This is our first FunFest and thus we are looking for information on when the FunRun and other events start so we may schedule our days. I sent an Email to them with a request for times, but in addition, am looking for some info on meeting with other C1 & C2 forum members.
Do you plan on this being by chance, or maybe at the motel for brunch or coffee or drinks, etc.? With thousands of people invading Central Illinois, it will be hard to determine which are forum members.
Thanks
We have found most of the fun at these events is meeting the people behind the cars.
