Hi Howard,
Don't worry, I will be at the Gold Cup Historics for sure, I was just wanting
a little exposure sooner, but I may pass on this one and go to my home track
Summit Point for the Jefferson 500 as well as the Walter Mitty prior to that.
I tell ya what . . . you can buy the first beers and I'll get the rest! It
would be fun to meet up with you there. You don't drink the Limey liquid
bread stuff in the bottle do ya?
Thanks for your opinion. I appreciate it.
Mike C

That mid-April VDCA event is being held in conjunction with a BMWCCA event.
7 hours is a long drive to spectate at a vintage race IMHO, although I've done
12 hours in a Mini to get to the Glen a couple of years ago for the Zippo GP.
If it were me, I'd hold off and plan to travel instead to VIR for the Gold Cup
Historics, over the June 10-12 weekend. This is always a great event. Cold
beers are on me if you get there.

To which event are you referring and how far are you from the track?

I know the track is nice. I was just wondering if anyone was going to show
up in any vintage racer to race. So far, I am learning that it may not be
worth the drive to spectate.
