    Lake Forest Sportscars is a class act and anyone who hasn't attended this event before should make it a point to go. Spectator sports at it's best.

    IMHO

    Friendliest staff as well. Could roll up in a 97 Civic and walk around the showroom like you owned the place (I know because I did!)

    This is an event that as evolved where everyone who attends is sort of at peace with each other at the end of the season...Like bring and drive whatever you have, and great cars always show up too all the time. One where everyone realizes the great part of this hobby. Bring a minor, bring a great, you still talk with the kings and queens and they all want to listen and hear what you care to say with interest.....Just one to look forward to...and I am difficult to please....as many know.....This is a wonderful event....

    Since everyone knows me for music links that have nothing to do with this site..(appreciate the monitors' acceptance so much)

    So, just a moment that we should take the time for these guys....Harry, the guy in the middle off stage before the performance was almost totally blind...In later years, they did a sort of run on shuffle so that the audience didn't know.... They gave so much happiness to so many.....This may be the last concert they performed together without doing more research...

    What a huge turnout of cars and people!!! The early rain finally stopped, but it did not stop them from coming.

    Agreed. It had everything you'd want, including the typical Mustang spinning out leaving the event.

    LOL! Around noon or so I wondered down to that corner and my brother said to me 'you're getting into Mustang crash territory'. We left before that happened.

    Par for the course!

    And your car looked great this morning. You drove past as I was walking towards mine and I knew that I had seen that plate somewhere before. :D

    I wonder how many people got nabbed by the Lake County Sheriff that was camping out at the next intersections, in BOTH directions :)
