Chicago/Wisconsin Exotic Car Drive to Lake Geneva

[ChitownNSX]

This was an awesome event!

Great cars, great people, well organized. We met in Kenosha Wisconsin, Hung out for an hour, The President of the Lambo Club passed out our drive route sheets so it would not be public knowledge, we had 1.5 hour drive up to and around Lake Geneva. Stopped at the Grand Ridge Resort for a Prime Rib Buffet and had security guards watching over our cars while we ate. Then paired off with smaller groups for a drive around the lake again.

This was an awesome drive, Midwest guys, keep your eyes pealed for the next one in August!

HUGE THANKS TO JOEL AND CARLA for putting on a great event. TO Jason from Jason's Auto Spa for the giveaways and knowledge about detailing.

Here are the pictures!!

Do you have any pic of the ZO6 in the background with the black wheels. Looks sick. Gives me ideas.

I am sure someone does out there if you search for this over the next few days on different forums. I gota be honest. I did not take pictures of the Vetts, There were just to many other nice cars to look at than waste my time with something I see 100 of a day.

That is Greg's Car, he lives down in Tinley and is not on the Forum here.

^ That's good to know! I wasn't sure if their were any '02+ owners other then us. I like to see a nice mix of years/colors. Man, that Long Beach is GORGEOUS! I need to see it in person!

I didn't take any pictures specifically of it, but I have a partial shot from a group picture I took. At least, I think this is the one you are looking for. There was something like 40 vettes there.

Just trying to get an IDea for the ZO6 and feel for an all black wheel for the one in the garage. I know what you mean by many of them sighted but not all are the ZO6. :wink: I will check Thanks

can give some details to this car for you.

It was dropped to the floor, The wheels had black textured paint in the middle and shiney black lip with a very thin blue line on the outside of the lip.

There was some special badging made up of the batman symbol where the normal Z06 Badge goes, on the brake calipers, and stitched into the seats Everything was blacked out. I remember there being very dark tint on all of the windows. And it might have had Procharger under the hood.

I am pretty sure that was the one parked between the Lambos and GT40's on the side of the lot at Steinhafel's. If so, I did take an engine shot of that one. The only Vette-specific pic I took.

Love the Novitec wheels on the F430. That wheel looks great on the car.

There were a couple of Diablos there. I guess they just didn't look quite as impressive between the Countach and the Murcielago...

I didn't get any either. Here are my pics:

One of the organizers, a Lambo driver, has some pics up on flickr, and there are a couple of Diablo shots:

you didn't have to photoshop the plate, I have an SOS plate holder, I would have been happy to make the plate vanish for you:wink:

Sweet pics - looks like a great turnout on a perfect day!

I miss driving around LSD in Chicago and man, when I was living there I only had my s4.....lotsa ballers in the area apparently!

Reading some of those custom plates is pretty hilarious seeing everyone's creativity


thanks for the post
