Super K in Mentor up near the lake. People start coming in about 4pm and stay until 10:00pm sometimes later in the summer. Usually about 400 or so cars of all types. Bring your lawn chair, cooler, lift your hood and watch all the cars. Eastlake has a gathering at the city hall (called the blvd of 500 flags) on Sunday's from 4:00 to 9:00 pm also
Cool let me ask ya, what is the crowd like at mentor?Is it a bunch of kids with rustangs and rice burners? What days for Mentor, saturday and sunday?

Middle to older. Differnt groups of cars also. Older 56 57 birds, Older Vettes, Nice Mopars. Average age range 40's to 70's. Draws family's in that just like to look at the cars and talk with the owners. Cars seem to group together depending on what you have. Corvette Cleveland wanted me to join there club but to be honest they travel to much through the state on the weekends and for as much as I like vettes I also like to be around a mix of vehicles and people. The Super K is on Saturday nights. Eastlake on Sundays. Also there is a 50's diner called Annabelle's on Friday nights in Mentor and they also have some greats cars to look at.

some time if you feel ambitious try the "super cruise" at Wasean Ohio its about 10-15 miles west Of Toledo and has brought in as many as 900 cars on a Tuesday night they have a band and each year has grown bigger and bigger.
all sorts of cars from the real old farmers car dragged out of the hay barn to some pretty exotic stuff (Cheetah, Cobra) Vettes also but not in the majority.

I know, what a crazy winter. One of the weirdest ones I can remember. Although I am a Northeast transfer to ohio but from what I hear this is not the norm. Any shows going on in the spring? All I have seen so far is summer.
