I’m in. Plan to trailer the car the 1100 miles. (The pickup is more comfy, for long trips than the Z) Working hard to get my engine back in and fully functional in time for this. I lived in the area for 5 years. Great mountain driving out there. Looking forward to it!

Make sure your cooling system is in tip-top condition. Pulling on the steeper grades at lower speeds will tax the cooling system. Those traveling from locations east of CO, will likely travel on I70. Crossing KS & Eastern CO is 300 miles of plains. At interstate speeds ambient air temps of 100F+ should be expected but not a problem.
I never lived in CO, but have been there many, many times from the time I was a young boy. Love the Rockies, kinda of humbles you to consider your place in the grand scheme of things & the air is so crisp & clean in the early morning.

I will be there. This will be a fun event and a chance to hang out with some ZR-1 owners that I haven't met before.
Several people with Colorado experience are designing routes for us to try out and we should be able to get plenty of drive time and some time to relax. I will joining the RMR after 30 days on a ZR-1 Road Trip to Glacier National Park and the West Coast of Canada. Just to get you in the correct frame of mind, here is a pic from 2015 when Lyndi and I were in the Rockies: ![]() Jim |

Mary Jane & I will be joining you for some of the day trips. On this trip we hope to also visit former San Jacinto Corvette Club (Houston) members who now live in Bailey and Conifer, Colorado. They may join us if you allow C3's and C5's.

Hi Dennis!
Glad you are coming! Thanks for bringing this to my attention. I just got off the phone with the Lady Luck Hotel/Casino. "We're having computer issues, so just call us at (303)998-7777 and you can register directly." They know us as the Corvette Car Club (CCC) or ZR-1 Corvette Club. I/they will try to fix the computer FU. Ted |
