Default head count now 47

Only 2 more spots available if you are on the fence it's time to jump

Karen will be requesting shirt sizes and $$ from all of you who responded in the affirmative. Please act promptly because we are fronting money to cover the expenses. Over 49 will be a wait list.

Default FULL ! wait list forming

We have made our quota but will take names on a wait list.
We know that nobody on the forum would "fade away" but sometimes that happens so send Karen an email if you want to be wait listed.
Thanks and C U at the reveal

Date of the event is January 18, 2014. We will gain access to the show one hour ahead of the general public.
All attendees will meet at Cauley's automotive on Orchard Lake Road in West Bloomfield, MI for a warm coach ride to the doors of Cobo (coach departs Cauley's at 7am sharp!), a long sleeved tee shirt commemorating the event, ticket to the auto show (AND early admittance!), a trip to Motor City Casino for lunch and fun (lunch and fun at your own expense), and then a warm coach ride back to your car at Cauley's. Price is $35 per person.
The Catch is that we need 49 participants to honor the package price, and I need to let them know by THIS THURSDAY, December 19. Then I will need you to mail me a check ASAP if we have enough participants to make this a go. I will advise all people who RSVP if we get enough participants and where to mail the check.
Please RSVP asap (BEFORE THURSDAY, Dec 19th!) if you want to join this exciting event!!! The first 49 responders will be accepted!!!!!
Happy holidays,
Karen

They will probably run into the same situation and won't be able to supply them too.
Would be nice to see it though.

During the '04 C6 intro, went to the NAIAS Industry Preview of the C6... and then the next year did the same for the Z06.

Went last year to see the C7, and am wanting to view the C7 Z0?... will have to see if I have time for a little trip. If I go - it will be Thursday the 16th.

Best to send an email to Karen. She is keeping track of all, including the wait list and she is not a forum subscriber.

21 days! Flight, hotel and rental car are booked. How are the highways in Detroit mid January, does anyone know? It's been awhile since I've driven in snow.
