Take a jacket. Weather is a little different in the Mid West. I think they're in the fall season. but weather looks good and watch out for the rain on Sunday
All the Pabst Blue Ribbon you can drink too?

I got to judge today. I walked up and down atleast 25 rows of corvettes, 8000 corvettes. And it was a hard pick. they all look a like and if i did see a nice corvette, the people wouldnt take the bra's off.. so i had to skip them. its a show, take off the bra!
Any ways, Im very happy with my choice, i picked a C5 that belonged to an older lady. She was super sweet and so excited to tell me about her corvette. She is a total car nut and knew what she was talking about. Its a pretty stock vette, but it was super clean, she would keep cleaning it none stop. And she travelled by herself up her with out her husban..lol
At the show they have venders Installing parts on the spot. SHe just bought a up graded brakes and roatars system, she wasnt able to get those installed there, but she was so happy when she showed me her new brakes.. She reminded me of me and how i love car parts too..lol

it wasnt completely stock... she was more of a sleeper, she had the engine mods and showed me she was still upgrading, Pluse it was super clean, for driving it there and then driving in the open feilds.. she worked hard to keep it spotless..Even her engine bay was spotless...Theres a lot of hard work in that car, Plus she did it on her own
