Hey all,
Has anyone ever considered driving up to Elkhart Lake Wisconsin to see the vintage races? As I recall it is about a 150 mile drive and is usually is scheduled for mid July.
Remember these cars are the real thing - not replicas.
I was there last about 2 years ago - there were many Cobras, including an orginal Dayton Coup and a couple of GT-40's. The races go pretty much all week-end long - with lots of different classes.
As I recall, there was a lunch break which allowed time for anyone that wanted to pay the fee a chance to get on the track. The spectators are allowed into the pit areas to come and go as they please. It is a great opertunity to get a close-up look at some very nice and historic cars.
Anyway - it's just a thought if we are looking for a July event
