    Here is the concours entry list. They have alot of very old and rare pre 1920 race cars this year.
    I see that Lake Forest Sportscars is now a sponsor. That Ferrari 166 Vignale is from the Chicago area also. Don't forget to bring your sportscar out to clubday on August 25th.

    Apparently the organizers are needing to fill quite a few volunteer positions as of yet, if you're interested you can send an email to '[email protected]' to see what is available. Her name is Jessica.

    I'll be working the VIP Hospitality tent from 1-4 on Sunday!

    This is a top quality event that you will enjoy. Many Pebble Beach cars come in for this show every year as several judges are in both events. Concours is this Sunday.

    I have a group of 30+ cars attending Club Day on the 25th.

    Look for the Brew City Cruise Night tents. We'll have 3 or 4 Ferraris in the group, and a bunch of super nice muscle cars, Porsches, BMWs, etc.

    They only have special parking on Club Day for your Ferrari. On the day of the concours you will have to park it in the regular reserved parking area. Register your Ferrari next year for club day. They would love to have you.

    Over all I would say a very disappointing showing of cars compared to previous years.

    I think you might be comparing apples and oranges.

    Saturday is Club Day, this year by any objective measure was the best yet. More cars and more variety than previous years. However I would say the food choices were the worst ever and they really need to do something about that.

    Sunday is the Concours and begins 1 hour from now. Haven't seen those cars yet. Too bad it looks like it will almost certainly rain.

    If you were expecting the Concours display on Saturday then you would very likely be disappointed.

    Not as many Ferrari's at the club day but alot of other marques were. For the Concours it started to rain at around noon. Alot of great cars came in from Pebble Beach. The very dark blue Ferrari 212 was fantastic along with the Vignale 166. Just look at all the old race cars. That Bug T57 and the 1931/38 Alfa 1750 were very interesting. Also the Facel cars are rare to see.
