I knew the good weather, combined with the holiday weekend would mean a good crowd, but today was exceptional. All I can say is - wow!
Everywhere I looked, people were enjoying the day.

Good weather today. If you didn't show up, did you miss anything? Nothing, unless you consider any of the following vehicles interesting:
A 'real' 289 Cobra.
A 1911 Stanley Steamer.
An Elan Sprint.
3 Lamborghinis from the local dealer.
A Rossion.
A Farmall tractor.
A pig.
A BMW 3.0CS.
A Morgan.
A Lincoln Capri.
All in all, there must have been around 200 cars there today, with the amazing variety we've come to expect of this venue.

I spoke to the owner of this Torino Boss 429, and he took exception to the fact that I had posted it was a 500hp motor. Well, he wanted us to know it is 900hp. The dyno sheet had suspicious-looking crayon additions to some of the HP and torque numbers. All I know is, he had an 8-track tape in the car, playing engine noises as he arrived. You be the judge.
