Hey Jeff, we should be OK for parking help, we have myself, Bullmarket, Jmbbluevette, HardtopC54fun, possibly a couple others. Marks asks for 3-4 so we should be fine. I wasn't part of the parking crew last year but we'll ask about trying to keep some room for the posse to park together. Suggest the parking group meet & leave the plaza by 4:30, the rest of the Posse by 5:30/5:45? Weather so far looks GOOD!
I did help out last year and we were not able to reserve spots to the rest of the Posse. Mark's staff thought it would be too difficult and when the traffic started flowing in, well it just did not happen.
Not to say it couldn't, I just think it is difficult.
I will chime in later on when / where I will be.
Got to go charge my GoPro...

Last year the early group met about 4:30 at the meeting place, rode in together, were let in to Marks ahead of all other waiting cars and parked together right up front. It wasn't long after the gates opened the other rows around us filled up with Corvettes and some other cars really fast.
I may not know how early I can get there until I'm on my way Monday

I used to go to Marks every monday for years and years in my white Z28...SC sucks for car shows haha...
My mom and dad are definitely going weather permitting in their black c5 z06. Im sure they would love to meet up with you guys and head in all together. You meet up in the Peak Fitness parking lot (I heard Peak fitness shut down, so whatever is in that lot now I guess haha)?
I wish I could make it, its like a mini carlisle during vette day my dad says...

Vic;
Unless you really need me to help with parking I am going to come in with the later group. Work has been a bear lately!
If you need me, just say so and I will make it happen.
Mary Lou wanted to come but it looks like work will keep her away.
Looking forward to seeing the Posse and lots of Vettes!

Well I just talked to my father, and they want to ride in together with you guys, but they want to get there at 5 so they can eat before it gets too crowded. They (Ted and Mac) will be in a black 03 z06 with license plate MAC (its my "mom's" car ha-ha). They would love to meet you guys and get to know some other vette/chevy lovers so don't hesitate to say hello if you see them!
Hope its a great show tonight!
P.S., my dad is pondering getting a blower kit for the car (I told him A&A kits put down good power), so if anyone has one on their ride, "encourage" him to get one ha-ha...

The Posse has a flag and it will be prominently displayed in front of our steeds. That's where we will be. Stop by and meet the' boys '.

post script: Our crew has all kinds of superchargers and will be able to speak on the subject in detail.
