Wounded Warriors Car Show this Sunday Aug. 11 in Omaha

Post by mcconned »

Sorry for the late notice on this but my friends at Z Cars of Nebraska are sponsoring a car show this Sunday to benefit the Wounded Warriors Project. All proceeds will go to W.W.P.
Depending on where you live in Kansas City it is a 3 hour or less drive to Omaha. I live about 127th & State Line and it's right at 3 hours door to door. This could make a great day trip. My plans as of now is drive up in the morning and home in the early evening. I hope some of you can make this.....

I am definitely going. If you want to drive up with me, I will be at the Conoco(?) station at exit 19 off I-29. This is the exit with the famous orange water tower. As you go west, at the traffic light instead of turning right for QuikTrip, turn left at the Conoco. It is easier to get in and out of. I drive a 2005 Daytona Blue 350Z Roadster. I will be pulling out of there at 8:30 am. BTW, I have learned there are no car washes conveniently located so, at this point, you'll be displaying your car with I-29 on it.

An update on some of the cars attending: "I am looking forward to the show and we will be bringing the LF-A Nurburgring Edition (1 of 5 in US) along with the new 2013 Viper GTS, and possibly our Ford GT Heritage Edition."

What an AMAZING day! The attendance at the show was incredible AND I had a great visit with some of your Omaha cousins. The last tally I heard was $7,600 donated to Wounded Warriors Project. I am so glad I made the trip.
