How many of the forum members were at the Corvette Expo in Sevierville? Friday was great and we had a nice about-50-mile cruise. The rest of the weekend was rainy but there were some indoor things scheduled so it was okay. We'll probably try again this October.

There were some very nice vettes and also a good auction of muscle and classic cars.

Only downside was the traffic on Winfield Dunn and the town of Sevierville.

Overall it was a nice event.

I wish I arranged my schedule to attend the cruise, never attended one before. I stayed away on Saturday due to the weather. Will try again in Oct.
