New for me, but I'll give it a go. Sounds like a lot of fun. With my gambling luck, if I win anything, it'll be a big suprise.

I will consider this, but I probably won't be able to find the time.

Default Sounds great! But.....

1)Nobody can laugh (openly) at my paint (or lack thereof...)
2)Nobody can laugh (openly) at my worn back tires
3)Nobody can laugh (openly) at my interior (or lack thereof...)
4)Nobody can laugh (openly) at my various leaks (no lack thereof...)

...and if a Hooter's chick poses next to my crate of grief, somebody please...PLEASE! give her a full tyvek suit to keep the latest generation of fiberdust off of her!

...all this does entirely depend, of course, on me getting my oil pan fixed and installed tomorrow, my driver motor mount reconnected, my port side bank retorqued, my new CompCam promag (whatever) high end rockers and cheapy stud girdles adjusted, my new switch panel installed, a new belt for the alternator for the new pulley and my new DeWitts with three Zirgo fans installed.

All in all, shouldn't be a huge problem....but I never count on anything good happening!

I know three other vette owners not on line I'll spread the word to, but I wouldn't expect any of them.

There were several who went to the IRL race after last year's poker run. I think 2000droptop, the 1st place winner, was one of those who did.
