    It's time to beat the Lederhosen off the Porsche guys!

    The Austin area Ferrari and Porsche Clubs are jointly sponsoring a casual Concours d'Elegance car show on Sunday October 10th from 10AM-12:30PM at Moorespeed in SE Austin. Ferrari's will be divided into 2 classes: 355 and earlier and 360 and newer.
    There will be awards for the top 2 cars in each class and a People's Choice award. Entry fee is $25 (to cover cost of awards).
    There will be a Taco kitchen and free beer, yes, you read that right. Better yet: Moorespeed is donating 2 $500 service credits (1 Ferrari, 1 Porsche), the winner to be drawn from cars entered in the Concours.

    We will have guest judges and casual scoring: It's top-only: no engine, trunk or undercarriage. Easy-peasy.

    If you wish to register, click HERE

    Spectators are welcome and there will be separate parking.

    Do cars that are already there waiting to be serviced, count? Can they be registered as well? ;)

    Well, 5 months ago when we started planning for the car show we were worried about having enough cars show up. As of this week we pushing 100 cars, 40 to be judged, 60 for display. There will be some VERY special cars on display that hardly ever see the light of day - Ferrari and Porsche.
    You can enter for a chance to win a class award and be eligible for a prize. Or, you can enter to display your car only.
    Details and the link is above.
    "Top-Only", meaning no engine, no trunk and no underside. Easy-peasy. Breakout the hose and bucket!

    Spectators are welcome Central Texas.
