Supercar Saturday had a great showing last weekend. Few 996tts, didn't manage to run into the owners though.

I am still planning on hitting up the Wheaton, IL cruise night this week.

It's Corvette night... they are never heavily marquee oriented though and we'll uh... blend in?

AMS is such an interesting evolution from where they were to where they are now.

Sunday is also the second half of the Windy City Miata Clubs double header Autox weekend... so I'll be seeing what the car is like on a nice tight course.

Officially 6-9pm, usually works to get there a bit before to get nicer spots. I tend to park, walk a little, eat dinner with family, walk a bit more and roll out.

Might be fun to pre-arrange meeting somewhere right before they start rolling in (which is early for many, i saw cars at 7am this last one) so we can group together.

7am. .Geez. I'm 2 hours south. I think I trashed the emails I get to pre register, what time does it say to arrive? I think I could swing 8-9:00

It's supposed to be roll in around 8-8:45, but if the last one is an indicator... earlier (much) is needed to get in the actual spots within the promenade. I realized I wanted to get out easier as i wasn't staying the entire morning, so I just parked with a few hundred others in the main lot. LOTS of cars, LOTS of big money cars... was honestly fairly impressed as some pictures I'd seen before were somewhat limited.

That's all I really care about, easy in and out. Who is all going next month?

Ran into 911Al_ at Gingerman Raceway last weekend, I was in a little old CRX and he brought out a wonderfully white 996TT.

So when do we do K1... I want to leverage my not-bigness...

Is anyone here going to road America Aug 7 for the race? If you have never been it's an amazing track to watch the world's greatest gt cars on. I'll be heading up that morning from Bloomington
