taliesineast08.jpg

Wisconsin back roads are perfect for driving your Corvette the way it was meant to be driven.  Our guided tours are designed to give you some of the best of Wisconsin's back roads.

 

The number of Corvettes in each tour will be limited to 15-18.  In addition, some tours will have required fees for samples and tours as indicated in the tour description, as we have done in the past.  For planning purposes, we have printed all fees at the tour stops. 

 

Staging for all Corvette Adventures road tours will be in the road adjacent to the registration area 15 minutes before launching.  As is our policy, we will launch all tours on time.  You will receive a route map of all tours you have signed up for in your welcome packet.

 

Please also remember that most brewery and winery tours require closed toe shoes.  We can’t emphasize this enough. . . every year someone forgets – please don’t be the one.  Also, don’t forget to get gas before your tour!!

 

IMPORTANT INFORMATION – TOUR DESCRIPTIONS

“SCENIC” – This will be a relaxed, leisurely drive through the countryside.  Take in the scenery and the beauty of the land and enjoy the sights of the countryside driven in a relaxed manner.

 

“SPIRITED” – These tours are for drivers (and their co-pilot) who are confident in themselves and their cars and who enjoy driving their Corvettes in a more aggressive manner as the opportunity presents itself on a tour. Slower, more cautious drivers should either drive from the back of these tours or limit themselves to “scenic” tours for maximum enjoyment of everyone.

​

he number of Corvettes in each tour will be limited to 16.  In addition, some tours will have required fees for samples and tours as indicated in the tour description, as we have done in the past.  For planning purposes, we have printed all fees at the tour stops that we are aware of.

September 25 - 10:30am - Tour 7A - Spirited - Led By - Joe Morgan

The Pontiac G8 Tour, led by Joe Morgan, Organizer/Maintainer of The G8 GXP Registry.  This Tour was originally planned for G8 GXPs only, but we aren't going to be "model snobs", G8 GTs and even G8 Base models are welcome to join us for this spirited jaunt thru the Wisconsin River Valley.  Just be prepared to keep up!  We will start the day with a short hop to Dells Raceway Park, where you will get the opportunity to do Hot Laps.  Once everyone has gotten that out of their system, we will drive some fun backroads to take us to lunch at J's Pub and Grill in Reedsburg, Wisconsin.  Their motto is "Discover the Taste of Tradition", and that's what you'll get to do.  Since we will be a large group, we should get to choose from 6 different Burgers, Sandwiches & Wraps, 2 Different Salads, or 5 Different Appetizers (menu subject to change).  After getting a chance to eat your fill, we will hit the road again for some spirited driving thru Wisconsin's Driftless Region.  After some road time, you will get the opportunity to stop to tour a Private Pontiac Collection, and enjoy some light refreshments.  We will then depart  and head back to The Dells on some fun driving roads.  Exact driving miles and time are still being determined, but expect this drive to burn up over 1/2 tank of fuel and get you back to Chula Vista by dinner time.  This should be a great way to start your MuscleCar Adventure (unless you wisely got there on Thursday!), and then you can meet and drive with a bunch of other people and diverse MuscleCars on other tours on Saturday and Sunday.  You are going to have some fun on this run!

Hotterville Inn Restaurant is a family-owned and operated restaurant and burger pub.  You will enjoy the atmosphere and food.

 Botham Vineyards & Winery have been growing and producing Wisconsin’s best wine since 1989.  Vine-to-bottle has been a fundamental part of their winemaking philosophy for more than 30 years, long before it was hip to be farm-to-table, or in our case, grape-to-glass. They know that Wisconsin’s best wine begins in the vineyard and that in Wisconsin, great wine can only be made from grapes that grow well in our climate and are tended with care and obsession. They are an original vine-to-bottle Wisconsin winery and one of only a handful with estate vineyards producing authentic Wisconsin wine.
