Mike,
I thought not, after the INDYCARS thing was a bust in interest. Perhaps for
the WCC next year again?
No need, and no pre-planning. My read of the information is that the back of
the paddock will be open to all "vintage pre-1980 vehicles". If you arrive
in one you get a $5 ticket price reduction, a place to park, and potentially
a drive around the track (again - if you were at the Wine Country Classic).
If the MG's go then Andy Preston canl lead the way- he has his MGA Coupe and
belongs to the MGOC as do I. No word from him yet though....
Hope to see as many of you in your "classics" on the day.
Tim
1958 MGA (classic!)
