I'll finish up this weekend and send the route to the web site for publication ASAP.

Looking forward to seeing everyone again.
Me and my son-in-law will be there in time for the evening cruise. Is it still at 6 pm? I'll be in an 04 Commemorative Edition Z06 with retired Navy plates. Say hello if you see me.

Me and my wife had dinner with you after the cruise 1.5 yrs ago or so.

The weather was great.
We had around 100 cars rio the Friday night cruise.
Many convertible drivers put their tops down for the cruise.
Some really interesting cars went through the auction.

A couple of Ferraris, a beautiful 57 Bel Air, a 2002 Vette Convertible with 4595 miles on it (sold for 13,500), and lots of C-4s going for a song. Even a C-7 or three went through the auction. There were around 100 cars in the auction.


Lots of people stopped by John's big red trailer to business with him and his array of C-5 parts.

I had a great time.
If anyone wondered about the chicken sausage gumbo, that was a special Saturday, it was Awesome!!!! I could've eaten a gallon of it but I would've gone broke buying the beer to go with it.

How was the turnout this year? Heard vendors were way down from a few friends that went, for sale cars too. First expo I've missed since the Blizzard of '93 in Knoxville.

I thought the turnout was on par from previous years. The weather was very nice both days.

I will say the carshow turnout was down on Saturday, Friday was packed in the back lot.

Most of my time was spent at the NCRS event with my car being judged, so I didn't have time to mingle outback either day.

This was the first year in a while there was judging right? I actually thought the spring and fall 13 shows were really good compared to years past.

Yes it was the first time NCRS had a judging event at the CE. Past shows have been better especially on Saturday.
