    On Saturday, October 8th, one of the events at the Atlanta Concours is the:

    I filled out the online form to enter my 1968 Fiat 500F a few days ago but did not hear anything back about them receiving the application or if I was accepted.

    Me neither, but I went ahead and bought a driver ticket anyway. The website only requires drivers to register, but doesn't seem to say anything about your car registration needing to be approved.

    Just curious.

    Is this a relatively new event?

    And who is putting it on?

    Sounds like fun.

    Hey Drew,
    I think the entire weekend is the 1st Annual Atlanta Concours d'Elegance. It looks like all of the events are at Chateau Elan, which is very nice. The Macchine da Sogno Italiano is one of the events on Saturday, but the Main Event (the Concours) is on Sunday. It looks like the guys putting this together are trying to put Atlanta on the Concours map. I have no affiliation... Hope you can make it (I'd like to see any one of your cars!)...

    I absolutely LOVE Chateau Elan, Julie and I were married there! :) Gorgeous setting for a car show on the lawn.

    I tried to enter the code "Italian" as per the website to purchase the ticket but it did not work. Has anyone else had problems?

    I registered my car the other day... I never got a reply either. I also called because I had a question about the VIP ticket. Once again no call back or reply. I bought a driver ticket + VIP for Sat. only for $85.00. To my surprise there was a $4.00 handling fee + tax.

    I printed my ticket on my paper & my printer ( what did they handle?) And... why am I taxed? they provided me with nothing. Road Atlanta don't charge tax on tickets.

    Its NOT about the $ I just hate hidden fees. Why would you want to piss off your customer before he even gets to your event. ( just saying)

    Mark,
    I agree with you- the handling fee was tacked on at the end, and for what? I printed my own ticket as well. Hidden fees are BS.

    I have other commitments for Saturday, but at the Petit Le Mans, they were selling tickets for half-price, so I bought a ticket for the Concours on Sunday. Anyone else going?
