Title: AmeriCarna LIVE 2018, Please join the SAAC Carolina's Members
Post by: BGlover67 on August 27, 2018, 03:04:44 PM
Please join us for AmeriCarna LIVE on Saturday, Nov. 24, in Davidson, NC!  Last year we met up the night before and toured Mike Roger's awesome car collection.  If there is any interest, we can try and meet up again the night before and do something.  I'm working on getting our cars to park as a group in the VIP reserved parking again like last year along with the NASCAR drivers and such.  Please drop me a line if you think you may be going.


Thanks,

Brian

Bill,

Unfortunately, I'm not going to be able to attend this year. I'll be on an 'unexpected vacation' right about then ::)  I really enjoy going to this every year too.  It's a fun event for a very worthy cause.  Still, if there is anything I can do to help coordinate, or if anyone has a question, just contact me.

Once again, please take lot's of pictures! You did a great job last year.  So glad to hear Ted's KR will be there.

Good question but I can't tell if its Tom in the photo or not. Quite frankly, at the time, I was totally focused on #2. Seeing that particular car was pretty special for me.

Phew, finally finished the gallery.  It was a gray day to start, but the sun came out and despite the event being moved a day, the turnout was still outstanding.  GT40 P/1046, 67 GT350 #1609, and Tom Cotter's 289 Cobra were in attendance.  Ray Evernham couldn't be a better host, talking to people and taking photos, also wandering around were Ryan Newman, Johnny Benson, and Robin Pemberton from Nascar.  https://www.flickr.com/photos/30404532@N04/albums/72157704101695865

Great photos looks like a real nice group of cars. Did they fire the GT40 up?

I know it's an unusual car for this event but any information about the Lotus Cortina?  Owner?

No clue, I'll guess someone from the Charlotte vicinity.  Very clean car, I recall.
