I'll be traveling through South Carolina and staying in Old Fort NC for a few days. Are there any GT40/Cobra type Ford sites I should visit? I plan on visiting the Auto racing hall of fame in Mooresville. Someone mentioned going by Oltoff Racing but I don't know if it's mainly service, parts sales and fabrication or there's a bunch of cool cars on site to see. Any other suggestions? I'm not a huge Nascar fan but I know there is a lot going on regarding Nascar.
Visiting NC and SC in a few weeks
- Thread starter Rodster
- Start date
Unlimited stuff to see, from memory e.g.:
- Olthoff for sure, maybe you call in before
- Holman-Moody usually is quit open to visitors
- Nascar hall of fame
- Charlotte Raceway
- various Nascar related locations/museums like Hendrick Motorsports, Richard Childress Racing, and many more - do a web search
- on your way from SC to NC you could pass https://www.downforcemotorsports.com/ usually plenty of cars in the showroom
- Check for Cars&Coffee (depending on weekday)
Others will certainly chim in for more....
Don't forget the food section - plenty of good BBQ
Have fun and enjoy......

Hello folks,

Do you have any recomendations for me?
- museums (cars, planes, tech stuff)
- race events
- car shows
- BBQ restaurants (good ones)
- NASCAR stuff
- regular tourist stuff
- etc. (Yes, wintertime
)
How is the weather around the turn of the year in NC? Lower temps are OK but I don't really care for freezing.
How about Greenville area (strong advertisement was made here just...

Thank you! Looks like Downforce Motor Sports is definitely on the list. I'm visiting relatives in Lexington, SC for a day or two.
Thank you for the link to the other thread, there is a lot of good information there. For some reason when I did a search it didn't find anything travel wise for my search string.
