This sounds great, Tim. The laps were fun, though slow, but this is my
favorite event and racing group - I attend every year. There are usually
car club corrals, particularly for Alfas, Porsches, etc., and normally I
just park at the back of the paddock without special permission, since
this is a low-key event and they appreciate seeing a TR6 or Lotus Elan
in the parking area, but it's nice to have it formally approved.
Cheers,
Greg Tatarian
