'02 Supercar Reunion: Saturday night cruise ?'s

Yeah, I know, this is the wrong forum for this, and a moderator should know that, but I wanted to be SURE everyone trying to make the Reunion sees this.

We've been contacted by a local (Collinsville) Chevrolet dealership, who is interested in giving us a place to cruise to and hang out at Saturday evening. They said they would provide the food, drinks (sorry, no alcohol!) and places to park (as in "park in the showroom"!) as well as covered parking outside, the dj, and all of the extras required to make this thing "go".

Now, the only things they ask in return are a "guesstimate" on the head count a few days in advance, and that some Supercars actually show. Of the 20 cars that have sent in their registration forms, 13 said they were going to cruise. Anyone else, supercar or not, planning on cruising with us Saturday? EVERYONE is welcome, as the more people we get to the cruise spot, the better. From what we have talked with them, this sounds like it could be a GREAT time for all, and could be something for everyone, including the wife/kids.

So, does this sound like something you attendees could get into?

How far is it from the show? Is the dealer having an "open" show/cruise that night?

I think they said it's like 10 minutes. Now, this is what I "think" he said, as I'm unfamiliar with Collinsville, but I think he said it's back through town on 64. He said a police escort would be done, which leads me to believe that he did say back through Collinsville, as they do that regulary for cruises.

I'm not sure what he specifically has in mind, but it sounded pretty much like the more the merrier. He didn't have anything going until he found out about the Reunion, but thought it would make a nice cruise spot, and was willing to provide food and entertainment.

Would any of the non-cruising cars consider trailering to the cruise spot? Just trying to get an idea...

I would really like to go but don't know if I can drive it with the 4:88's and the Open Headers!! I will go for the trailer idea.. Sounds like a Good Time and something different to do.. Will we be together as a group?

Mark,

4.88's and open headers would sound awesome and w/the police escort....no tickets. Can you imagine the look on the spectators faces when Mark cruises in with that beast? I think the cruise sounds like a great addition to an already exciting weekend.

I like the Police Escort BUT what about on the way back??
