We always go to OC the next week for the big cruise/show weekend with my Chevelle or Nova. I'm new to Vettes (new C7) and didn't realize they had a Corvette weekend. Turns out it's the weekend before the cruise weekend. So we're thinking of doing both. Whats it like on Corvette weekend? I assume it's a big event? Is the inlet lot pretty full on Sat?

I looked into it, and registered. Also got hotel reservations. Looks like a fun weekend. We'll be there Thurs afternoon thru Sunday. Hopefully the weather will be good.

OC Corvette weekend well worth the trip. Seems like about a quarter of the cars vs Carlisle. Really nice display at the inlet of about 3 to 4 hundred Corvettes including about 15 or so c ones. Boardwalk parade at about 4:30 on Sat coming from the inlet. Usually nicer weather than Carlisle but weather is important. Nice crowd. Get up close to the owners and converse. Notable number of female Corvette owners. ------Cruzin weekends also are very very interesting and you would see stuff that you have never seen before but I do not know those dates and not sure which ones are the important ones.

You will have a great time as long as the weather holds. Check out the inlet on Sat. I think---It's free state Corvette club-- check out the website--- go to their main hotel to check out the wearables and other stuff. Think it's the Clarion Resort Fontainebleau Hotel. http://www.freestatecorvette.com/The...t.aspx--------

Corvette Weekend in OCMD was awesome agin! Over $55k raised fer Spina Bifida!!!
Had an amazin time lookin at all the generations of Corvettes.
Bout noon Sat I heard judges sayin over 650 cars this year.
Got lots of compliments on the car, talked to many, many people. Good people. No C4 haters.
Saturday started out with drizzly rain but cleared by 9ish, then nice temps with sun. Cool in the evenin tho, needed a jacket.
Durin the parade someone yelled "Hey Green Hornet!"
Photos are ruined...something happened to my camera settings n photos have purplish streaks or lines thru them...sorry.
Next year its on Oct 16 & 17.
