I'll be there the full 4 days. First time for me so I'm looking forward to having a great time. PM me if you want to hook up at some point. What part of Iowa you from? We have friends in Mingo, Iowa we get to see every once in a while.

Looking forward to meeting all you out of towners, One of our regular crusiers will be running a booth up there for Corvettes Only and if we arrange a group lunch try and hook up with us, it's always fun to have more people join in.
