We'll just have to wait and see, I guess. Hell, I never know what'll be
on the tele' _today_. So two months down the road is "right out" in my book.
Besides, you should _be there_.
My guess is that the Indy Children's Museum event is probably not the
same thing as Monterey/Pebble Beach or even the Lime Rock or Watkins Glen
vintage events... this is meant as no put down to VSCDA or Childrens,
it's just reality. Besides - it costs a lot of $$$ to shoot an event and
then whittle it down to 30 min or an hour... And how many shows have you
seen where they feature the Chicago Historics or other big vintage races
- exactly NONE. So, don't hold your breath.
Unless "My Classic Car" will be there... NOT.
