Great Falls (Virginia) Cruize In>>>
Beautiful day and the cars came out in force and largest crowds ever...this is a totally informal gathering and that is what makes if so great.
I arrived at around 6:30 am and 125+ cars were already parked. I got a nice parking area but by 7:15 place was packed with every conceivable spot taken and mobs of people...beautiful day and perfect for a car gathering.
To make this C6 relevant here is my 'outdated' C6 (if difference to the C7 forum)
[/URL]
And here are a few pics to feast your eyes on...
First, mob shots/pics really do not do justice to numbers of cars and people

A brand new Bugatti Veyron rolled in... styling still not to my taste entirely, BUT what a machine (and at $1.7M should be)
[/URL]
Something I learned...the engine compartment is not covered at all...thought is was with a clear poly-cabonate type material, but no...
[/URL]
This car was just nice...simple clean lines and beautiful interior...classy>>>
[/URL]
[/URL]
Then a McLaren MP4 Spyder cruized in... nice lines and great carbon fiber work
[/URL]

There were so many nice cars and most of the Corvette generations were nicely represented
Since I am moving to Jupiter Florida this was my last Great Falls Cruize In with my Vette...look forward to doing cruize ins in my new home port.

What a group!
I'd have needed an oxygen bottle halfway through a tour!
Looks like a fabulous enthusiast community, weather looked ideal, great shots of the world's most gorgeous rolling iron. What's not to like.
Oh, about your weather?
Our WI dreck enroute east, good thing y'all got this in when you did.

Man, I was really close to heading up there this morning, but decided to wait a few more weeks (and sleep in, haha).
Looks like a great turn-out and makes me wish I woke up for it. I've been meaning to head up there one morning since buying my vette last summer.
