I`ll be there!. Awsome event! Some crazy cars there!. Kinda sucks though there is no spectator spot at the start line and your pretty far away for the flyby.

I remember the first year they did it, I was sitting on my parents porch in Portland not knowing about the event, I could here a big noise of V8`s in the distance and all of a sudden a massive line of Vettes and other cars drove by the night before the event. Went to check it out the next day. Best event to stumble upon by far!

I'll be there with my C5 Z06.

Almost didn't happen, column lock shut me down 2 weeks ago. But a late night effort installing the LMC5 with some awesome support from Richard got me going again tonight.
