Default Corvettes Run to Laughlin, Oatman and Kingman

Yesterday I took off on a Vette Run to Laughlin, Oatman and Kingman. As always a Corvette run is, it was fun. Once we got to NV we met with Sin City Vettes and about 18 Vettes from their club. Great guys and you'll see on the pictures there is a C6 Z06 and a C5 Z06 with the targa conversion. A bitchen Monterey Red C6 ZR1 and a Callaway. We were going to drive thru the Hoover Dam but, we were told it was backed up and would take an hours to go thru and we skipped it.

Here are some pictures

Great pics! Looks like a real good run, now if I could just get mine out of the garage,,,,,,,,,,
The roads here in Hellinois are so bad I know I would ruin the alignment.

Looks like she means business


It's been almost 10 years or so since the wife and I have been to Laughlin. We usually take the back way off the 10 and take the 62 and go through 29 Palms, then hit the 40.

Great pics Pete! We had an appointment with the tax accountant on Saturday; otherwise, I would have loved to go since we did nothing afterward.

Now that looks like a fun cruise. Do those wings make them ricers? I don't think so.

I want to know how you take a picture of your dash while doing 137 ?
