Official 2011 CruiseFest thread

We made it here to Effingham a little before three. We are checked in and I'm headed out to MAM and talk to Deb.

Billy Z06 and another couple met up with us east of St Louis. Appears that we are the first ones here. It's hot and muggy, should be a good time.

No pictures yet as I haven't pulled them from the camera or uploaded them. We had a good time today. I'll try to get some pictures up tomorrow.

 

[Tom Bryant]

Go ahead and make us that couldn't come feel bad. Our day will come.

SO - What was the final headcount, more than 10?

​

 

[Toms007]

Tom, we are missing you. D, the final count was 25. Not great, but a nice cozy bunch.

 

[6 Shooter]

We'll be stopping by this morning to visit MAM's store.

Attention REMO.......... A message from Catbert

WISH YOU WERE HERE.

During a tour of Performance Choice facility we saw the state of the art machinery/equipment that is used to cut the leather parts for a set of seat covers. CNC cutting tools.

The molds used to make the formed carpet and floor mats.

Who is that masked man, Oh I mean the unmasked man?

Thank you

As my much, much older brother and I head West, I want to thank the Mid America people for their wonderful hospitality! They were great hosts.

The CAC attendees were great, too, even to this non Corvette owner (I am still not worthy).

Thank you all.

Byron

Well, I'd like to add my thanks to the staff and management of Mid America Motorworks. The CAC members who made the trip were treated to great time. Those who didn't make the trip missed a great time.

Thanks to all that made the effort to come, it was great to see you guys (and gals) again. To the new acquaintances, I'm so glad to have met you and I hope that our paths might cross again soon.

Thank you mid-america

I also want to thank Mid-America for the excellant job they did for the CruiseFest 2011. It was a class act!!

Also thank you to all the new people my wife and I met at the CruiseFest. You are a great group.

I want to thank my fellow CAC members who came to Cruisefest. I had a wonderful time seeing all of you and sharing stories about our lives since the last time we saw each other.

A shout-out to my good friend, Billy, who is still a die-hard Cardinals fan. Just remember, Billy, we ALL have a cross to bear and obviously we know what yours is!

And to Billy's lovely wife, Mary Anne, who had her hands full trying to take care of Billy and the new addition to their family!

A few of us decided I was still about a 1/2 point ahead of 'dre in attendance of all the Cruisefests. Of course, I was also at the CF which did not occur! That is the only thing keeping me ahead of 'dre. 'dre: Let's see if we can keep this going!

Tom, thanks for helping to put all of this together with Deb. The two of you did a stand-up job and I appreciate all you both did for us.

Bill: Congratulations on your promotion to overseeing the C3 forum on the CAC! You have so much passion for these cars and their owners. You certainly deserve to lend your knowledge on this site in such an important way.

See you all at Funfest! I will be parking with John & Linda Grawcock. Linda might be driving a really nice 96 Collector Edition Coupe with the LT4 engine. Stay tuned for more news about this breaking story!

In the meantime, for all you Vette nuts: SAVE the GOSH DARN WAVE!
