Default Yep, gotta go!!

Yep, we have to go. 5 years in a row for us.

From their website:
in 2015 we had 7,639 registered vehicles

To register this year, vehicles have to be 1989 or older.

There is no telling how many more vehicles come and are not registered.

This is really something to see if you have not been!

Here is their website:

Hope to see ya rajin cajin from Slidell! We will be in a 68 BB LeMans blue roadster.

Greater New Orleans Corvette Club Show is the following weekend in Slidell too:

http://gnocc.com/club/carshow

Usually have about 200 Corvettes there, all Corvette show, fun time for sure!!

Richard, Going to be a good one this year. The weather had a temp drop yesterday down into the low 70s. Clear skies so hopefully we won't get the rain like we did at Power Tour.

Been there three times. Excellent week of awesome cars. I would definitely say to make this a bucket-list item if you can.

I'm out on 190 in Indian Village. In-laws live in Diamondhead, I'm there often too.

Hoping next weekend is as nice as this one will be.

I'm out on 190 in Indian Village. My in-laws live in DH on Oliwa Pl, I'm there quite a bit.

If the weather stays like this it will be awesome. Looks like DH is on Wednesday's schedule next week, I can't make that but plan on being that way Thursday.

Och!!! Hope you are better soon.

I had a root canal a few weeks ago and I told my dentist (a fisherman on the weekends) that he treats his bait fish nicer than me. Might as well laugh about it, glad he has a sense of humor.

This year for CTC, we are just staying Thursday night, oh well, too many obligations this time. Better luck likely catching you at the GNOCC show, what are you driving? and will try to catch up with you Better half is driving the 08 Crystal Red and I plan to bring the 68 LeMans blue to GNOCC also.

Haven't missed a year since 1999, except for 2005 and no one came.
