One question. What took you so long? I bought my Fun Field registration last year!

PS: For those that haven't been ... just do it!

I am going for the first time this year. I have already called in my registration. Since I am driving my Carlisle Blue Corvette, registration is FREE

So, what sort of really cool stuff can I buy for my 'Vette there? I have already installed a ZR1 spoiler, stainless steel cove vents, and LS3 emblems on the fenders. I am not looking to "over do it", I'm just wondering what else I can find there?

Dude, you will literally find EVERYTHING there.

Get some performance mods done while you walk the fairgrounds!

9th year in a row for us this year. As mentioned there is literally any and all stuff for your c5. Just shop around, and know your prices, as some vendors are outrageous on their items. Most are fair, and will haggle on prices. Either way, always a great time.

There's a place right after you enter Gate #3 with plenty of hoses to wash your car.

Default Season pass

I get a season pass every year.

It's a 2 hour drive, so I don't plan on staying over. It gives the car a go run.

I was amazed the first time, and I'm still amazed every time I go.
