Thanks so much for the post John.

Due to some medical issues, I could not attend this years event. You posted some of my favorite cars. You even pictured my 64 silver / red FI Corvette now owned by Tom Cotter that I bought back in 1985 and restored it and raced until 1994 at Sears and Laguna.

The TRANS-AM cars are all just works of art. It is so neat to see this series of cars not only restored to perfection, but running 'hard' the way they did back in the day. Tom McIntyre and all the guys are 'real' gentlemen and every year, it amazes me how new cars show up and the history book grows with 'More of the story'

I might add that Joe Freitas has his 'MO CARTER' 69 TRANS AM CAMARO from Canada for sale. I have it listed on my website if anyone wants more info.

Thanks again for those of us that could not attend this years event. See you at Monterey Historic in August !

Sorry you couldn't attend Jim,glad I helped bring a smile to your face.
The Mo Carter car was for sale last year when it made an appearance and I have a ton of pics of it then...I am surprised it hasn't sold because like all of these cars that run in this circuit,it's a real-deal X-coded car,and it looks remarkably stock to boot.

Do you have a link to your site...?

Every one of these owners are just the nicest guys you'd ever meet at a racetrack and Kenny Epsman and others are constantly letting kids crawl into the cockpit to take pictures.Very refreshing compared to other forms of motorsports...
