Be sure to check out the Corvette Club of Rhode Island's August 3 show in Kingstown, RI. Details can be found on their site at http://www.corvetteclubRI.com

And here's information on another event...Tri-Boro's Gas N' Glass show on July 27. http://www.corvetteactioncenter.com/...fo&eventid=406

Elaine,
Yes, I had heard about the CCRI show on the 3rd of Aug. I will have to miss that one, because that weekend is Super Chevy at New England Dragway!! I will be showing my Vette and racing my Chevelle!!!

As for the Gas and Glass show on the 27th. I will most likely check that out. Do you know if anyone is meeting up and cruising down that way together?

Thanks,
-Rick

Rick,

I have no idea about anyone driving together the Gas N Glass show (I live in MA). Why not post something on the New England Corvette Message Center at http://northshorecorvettes.com/wwwboard/index.htm

Cicch95,
I don't live in RI, but I go to NED for points races. I'll be up there this Saturday and Sunday for racer appreciation weekend, if you're racing your Chevelle that weekend. I'm pitted right next to the tech lanes and kinda across from the bathrooms if you ever want to talk to me, that's where I always pit, just take a walk on over.

KyleBSt,
Unfortunately I won't be up there this weekend. I will be up at Lebanon Valley on the 26th and then back up to NED Aug 1 for Super Chevy. Will you be up there for that?

I will be racing the Chevelle and most likely showing the Vette!

If you work off of Martin St, then I work right down the street from you! Small world. We should take a cruise to Lincoln Woods at lunch some day and check out the beach babes!!! :hurray:


Have you always lived in Cranston? I grew up there and went to Cranston West. Graduated in 87.

by the way everyone on Tuesdays there is a cruise in at Oakland Beach in Warwick. I launch my jet ski from there but looked at the cars a few times there is always one of those C5 to C1 conversion cars there. Kinda interesting.

I work at Hope Global. It's a little further down, near the river. Lincoln Woods is sort of like Goddard Park. It's got a small beach and a lot of woods for walking, mountain biking, etc. Have not been there during the day in years, BUT I assume where there is sun and water, there will be WOMEN! It's about 8-10 mins from work or so. A nice cruise anyway! Drop me an email.
