Went up Friday, arrived in the afternoon. Held at the new nashville SuperSpeedway.
Great weather Fri and Sat: rained Sunday. Left at noon to get home to my 'honey dew list"
HUNDREDS of cars including 7 GT40 reps. 2 CAV (garage queens) one ERA,1 Roaring Fourty (on the track) and another beautiful red of unknown mfg that way out on the track at every chance INCLUDING the rain.
The track is BRAND NEW NASCAR track with a road rae cource in the center similar to Daytona. Spend some good time up on part of the oval before diving ito the infield section,. Track all planned SE of NAsville with purpose built highway leading to/from. COvered garages, plenty of pit area and many concrete padded RV hookups (inside the track: these are used no doubt for the race teams but wee available to us).
Basically a track event, as it should be with car shows worked in.
Mr. Shelby was there singing items for $50 a pop!
LOTS of GT350's, seriously track/street prepared cars (daily drivers with full roll cages) and many original cobras.
Had "suvivor" Cobras that were originalbut restored with originl owners, restored with second owners, and one beautiful original urestored owned by the same man since new: Trailered it himself from California!
If we did do a gettogether, I would suggest we "piggy back" onto something like this: Let someone else do all the arrangements. We could have easily had room for our own area including trailers. MUCHO track time withfull saftey services (wrecker/ambulance/fire crews/emts). Bet you they would even allow us our own designated time on the track!
I'm ready! cb
