Dan, that was on my calendar to go to that Glen Ellyn Car Show (made over 50 this year between all the cruise nights and cars shows combined) but at the last minute I decided to do something else (namely some testing in my C7 Z06 getting ready for her drag strip debut). Out of curiosity how many total cars showed up for that event?

This past Sunday 10-9-16, I went to the Medinah Shriner's car show in Addison, IL, in my 1967 Camaro, and was very surprised that they had a whopping 265 cars at the car show (maybe you were there)? At that event as soon as I cruised in I ran into Bob (Quicksilver Z). Bob, it was great seeing you my old friend and being able to bull chit with you for a short while b/f I had to fire up the computer and get some work done.

Yes sir I sure was, 3 years in a row now in my 67 Camaro. If you can't see my Camaro you certainly can hear it when I arrive and leave.

But which 50% (at any given time) is what keeps you on your toes.
