[QUOTE="tomshep, post: 8176860, member: 8203"] I pulled in the driveway last night about 9 PM. Total Mileage: 2438 Cost of Race Fuel: $188 Tires Corded: None! Trailer Tires Blown: 4 Weekend at Track with Buds: PRICELESS!!! It was a great event. It was good seeing old friends I hadn't seen in many years--some as much as 5 years. This was my second visit to Barber and it just reinforced the fact this is really a fun track to drive and a fantastic facility. The event really went off well. The displays were good and the cars were awesome. There was definately something for everyone. The part I enjoyed the most was a special display area of original-owner 64 1/2 Mustangs. There were about 12 there. 1 Convertible and the rest were coupes and 2 were HiPos. It was neat looking at the cars and then reading the story boards with them. Pictures of guys getting out of the service in 65 when they were 20 years old and here they are 45 years later now in their late 60s at the show. Really, really cool. Greatest Disappointment--SVT! What the hell were they thinking??? They had the 3 Rs up in the air on display. Right below were another 8 or so significant road race Mustangs. Next to that is the SVT 18-wheeler with two GT500s underneath the canopy and.....nothing else. Not a single soul around. No literature promoting SVT. No personnel. I was amazed. What a major marketing opportunity totally blown! I still can't believe how this was handled. Tom [/QUOTE]
