I'll be driving down to Bowling Green and will be there the 26th and 27th of Dec. Anyone want me to take pics of something special? Anyone want me to pick something up for them? (besides a new Z06)

I'm on it (or in it).
By the way, I plan to buy a brick while there. How much is one? I plan to put CorvetteRonW on it.

Thanks. Small brick is only $100. That's great! Anyone got a brick installed already? If so, where is it located so I don't have to wade through all of them?

There is a section where the Corvette forum members are listed. Facing the entrance, it's towards the right if I remember correctly.

Have fun, when I finally get down to the mecca, I'd like to do a big smoky burnout in front of the place, that would make a cool pic

Raptor, I was thinking the same thing today. There were only 4 cars in the front lot around 9:30 AM. I don't think they would like it though as it looks like they just sealed the parking lot!
Pics are transferring to my photo host right now so can't post any yet.
I saw the coolest thing while there (after I had used up all the shots on my camera's chip). There was a mid-30s guy there from California who was taking delivery of a new yellow Z06. One of the families that was standing around gawking at the car had a teen who asked if he could sit in the car. The owner said sure, go ahead. He let this kid sit in his new Z06! What a nice guy and what a thrill for the kid! Then the teen's younger brother asked the new owner: "How can your afford it?" The new owner said" "You know, I'm asking myself the same thing!"
