When I look at the Half Penny on Google Earth I only see about 30 parking places. Any idea how many cars are expected? Do you know how many cars the event handle? I'm seriously considering attending with a couple of friends but we don't want to get turned away if we don't get there right at 9 A.M.

They have additional parking available.

Last year, they easily accommodated more than 80 cars...

Just went there and it worked fine!! It will give you the website and then on the right is a list of events. Click on the Half Penny show and it will pull up. It also says the first 100 cars get a "goody bag" so must be able to handle 100 or more!!

WOW! Now cars and nice sun burn yesterday. It was a beautiful blue sky day with a nice warm breeze and LOTS of sun. And lots of really great corvettes there. I took a few that stood out to me, including mine. lol
But there were a lot more really good looking cars than I took pictures of.
Also, I met and talked with a few really nice people. And it was nice to meet you Ken and see that Beautiful C7 of yours. Now I got the bug to get one.

OK, I went to post more pics, but for some reason this forum keeps turning them 90°! Anyone know why this is happening? They look correct on my screen and in windows photo editor.

I was there too. Nice event but I think they'll have to find a larger space next year. They've out grown their venue.
