Default Corvette Invasion 2017 - Austin, TX - July 15 & 16

Posting for awareness of the Corvette Invasion this July 15-16 2017 in Austin, TX.

---------------------
This year’s event will be bigger and better than ever. We have cars coming in from all over the United States and Mexico.

On Friday Night, we encourage you to come explore downtown Austin, check out the local bars and restaurants on the famous Congress Blvd.

Saturday morning all Corvette owners will meetup at the Circuit of the Americas racetrack for a Corvette Car Show, Super Go-Kart Racing and Track Tours. (More details coming soon regarding Saturday night)

Then finally on Sunday morning come back for experience of a lifetime and drive your Corvette on the only F1 track in America.

(PLEASE NOTE: These laps will be at a controlled speed. Helmets are not required but are recommend)

Prices will vary on which package you choose from.

*** Tickets for Go-Karts and Tours must be purchase separate from your Corvette Invasion Registration.

I hope the parade laps work out like last year. I easily hit 100 on the track and was able to go around many times.

Went last year and had a great time. the parade laps on Sunday were the highlight for me. Will be cool to be able to race the Karts on that track. Plan to go again this year.

Got our ticket today, first time going. Coming from Corpus Christi, if anyone else headed up from here would be cool to convoy

Any input on hotels? Haven't seen any group rate info

Last year I was one of the first 300 to sign up so I could get the parade laps. Was disappointing that it was not limited to the first 300 to registered but almost 700 cars ended up getting the parade laps. Did not make for a fun Sunday waiting in 100 degree heat. Is this year going to be only the first 300 to sign up? If not you need to advertise that everybody that signs up get the parade laps.
