I just like seeing this being put together.

You're a mod right?

Then you have absolutely done your part.

Dude you built that entire wiki section pretty much by yourself. IMO you're good.

Third: The sponsors are a huge part of why this event is becoming such a hit. So give them credit as well

Having said all that. Like Junkie said. This isn't about taking credit or bragging rights. It's about us doing something for our members and the camaro community at large. The success of this event will be in the looks on everyone's faces when we are having the time of our lives.


Finally, My personal thanks to GM and Scott for being so willing to hang out with us. Our intent was not to have Camaro Team folks give speeches and have Q/A sessions. We really just wanted them to have a nice relaxing weekend hanging out with a bunch of raving gear heads. Our way of saying thanks and giving them a break from the daily grind.

I truly can't wait to meet each and every one of you who will be there.

Look forward to meeting you too

hmmmmmm.

Even if I got a job and and saved up enough and could get off of school, I won't be able to spend the money. Mods know why. You can PM me if you really want to know.

But long story short, thinks are looking grim for me making it.

[Mr Twisty]

This news is the homepage kind... What ya think, Tran?


BTW... Tran gonna be there too? If he shows, he might wanna wear dark shades and call himself... Justin, or Jason, or Jeff... Or get ready to hear PQ's band camp stories

This event is the culmination of all our time and efforts on this site in the name of the Camaro and the community. Which was 50% of the reason I said what I did earlier: It's far more than just a car show.

AND I'M FREAKING EXCITED!!!

we are doing more than a car show?

Number 3.... you have to be there. We can swap positions at the fest, I'll give you my ID and you can pretend to be me and I'll be you and spread all sorts of Z28 news.

I was thinking that, or train... I have begun looking into those... kind of...

is there no convoy going from St. Louis? I know there's one coming down from michigan. maybe they might make a stop-over in Normal. (if I still lived back home in IL, I'd come pick you up!)

Junkie has helped push this far more than anyone else, but everyone who is helping deserves some of the credit. We'll see just how much credit is due after the fest.

Glad to see the excitement buzzing about the event. Too bad I can't be there. Maybe next year if there's a west coast one. =P

I'm not sure about that, but that would be going quite a bit out of there way. I know there is a convey going from Chicago and meeting up with other convey's along the way, but if I remember correctly, they are leaving on thursday and I have classes on thursday.... And Michigan would be way out of there we, all they do id get on 75 south!

Also, I don't want to be causing people to make a 'tight squeeze' just so I can go... I have had a few ppl tell me if I could meet them in certain places they could take me the rest of the way, but most of the places they have said, I might as well just go the entire way!
