(As seen on the CF form too)

The Morris IL Cruise takes place every second Saturday of the month for four months, begins on June 11th. This series has become very popular with all the local car clubs, and you are in for a treat as far as the variety of cars of all kinds that make that show!

Not to be out done, there is going to be a gathering of ZR-1s there. But, beforehand, there is planned a little fun 85 mile tour out and back along a very pretty, and a little bit twisty drive, before ending up at the Cruise. And, no it isn't exclusive to ZR-1s - think of it as a bunch of Corvette nuts out to have a good time, so invite whomever driving whatever (Corvette?) along. The more the merrier!

Tentative plans is for the tour group to form up at the boat launch parking lot around 1:30 PM on Saturday and begin the tour at 2:PM. The route will take the group out along the south side of the IL river to Starved Rock, before crossing the river and doubling back on Rt 6 to Morris in time to enter the Cruise Nite.

The Morris Cruise is a charity event. The entry fee is $10 per car, spectators are free.

This is going to be a lot of fun - is every year! The variety of cars is terrific!:smash: There's food and drink provided by the local merchants and street vendors. It is an opportunity for ZR-1 guyz n galz to meet and share in some comradely as part of the summer driving seaZin!

Then, if I might add...

The FBI (Fast Boyz of Illinoiz) will be hosting some more activities a the BLOOMINGTON GOLD get together a couple weeks later. More on that in a later post...Stay tuned!
