I did see the car in the paddock area, but as I didnt watch really any
of the racing, I can't say that I saw it on the track.
Its always great to see an "old Swede" out there; I particularly happen
to like the 544 Volvos that go amazingly fast when compared to some of
the sports cars that they compete against.
With Labor Day late this year the WG vintage races were also late. The
paddock area was greatly expanded, it seemed, so there were likely more
competitors than in previous years--I heard at least 70 MGs. It didnt
seem that the parade lap for car show entrants was as crowded as in the
past, so its entirely possible/probable that the attendance was down for
the event--could also have something to do with Watkins Glen
International having their hands out for everything. $50US for a car
show entrant I thought was unreasonable.
