Default 2010 Eureka Springs Corvette Weekend *PICS*

Had a great weekend at ES this year. Great turnout, weather was perfect, and saw every generation of Corvette out there in one place!

Part of the activities included an economy run, photo tour, auto cross, show, poker run, parade of champions, and many, MANY other non organized activities. If anyone is thinking about going, I'd recommend, without hesitation.

Below are some pictures of the first day, economy run and driving around town. I'll put more pictures up tomorrow evening of the second day.

Innovative cooler and chair holder:



Waiting in line and participating in the economy run. I didn't drive my guzzler, but rode with a buddy in a C6. He got 31.21 mpg. The winner was around 55 mpg and I think cheated a bit...



















Other prictures around town. The first 2 is of the C2 that ended up winning best of show.

















This is not a show, just normal parking at ESCW



























OK, NOT A CORVETTE, but is rare around here and I just had to post. I didn't like these until I saw this one in person.






More pictures to come tomorrow!

Nice pictures Andrew!

We rode over from Rogers, AR Saturday morning.
Yes, I was on of those damn Harley riders in all that traffic.

Next year I'll have to figure out a way to take both.

Rolla, wish I knew you were there. I'd like to have finally met you. Did you go to the show? My car was in the C4 section, right by the water fountain.

I thought it was kinda cool with all of the bikers. I had breakfast at a place near the show. Some biker folks from LA sat next to our table. They started making comments about having to break bread with all of the Corvette folks, surrounding them. It was all in fun and we ended up talking with them a bit.

I'm loading another 200 pictures, so many more to come.

No, we didn't stop and look around any. I was with others on bikes, and none of them cared much for all the Corvettes in their way.
Just down for the Bikes, Blues and bbq event.

I will say that I saw more "nice" C4's than I ever expected to see.
More Grand Sports than I've even seen in one place. The C4's did good.

Felt bad for not taking the Vette out, so today we took it and went to Lake of The Ozarks.

Canon 5D Mark II with L series glass. These are watered down quite a bit for sizing purposes.

Great pictures Andrew. I was not able to go this year but I was there last year. I won the 2nd place plaque for C4. I was so impressed with that win. When you win there this means a lot of people liked your car and boy were there a lot of very nice C4's. Can not wait for the next Pictures.

The first two links are for a slideshow of everything, not pictured above. Below the links are some highlights.

They both have about 100 pictures each.

My favorite 2 cars of the show:
































Cool colored C4 (this is a photographer's nightmare!):












Look close - anything look strange!! Yes, this was an original GM car and the owner bought it from BJ - Chevrolet Collection last year:









Cool other pictures:





























Look close:

Nice pics Andrew thanks for sharing. I think I seen the yellow beast a couple of times...that is yours beside the silver C5 right? Might be heading out your way...I think I may have found a crossfire setup for Matt. Just have to go look at it and see what the guy wants for it. Looking forward to maybe seeing you and TJ again too.

Was that your C6? If so, that was a nice car. My buddy and I admired the wheels and stance. There were quite a bit of OK folks there! We say your car Friday, I believe after the economy run.
