Camaro's at Carlise

[copo69]

Tom, I've always thought a show of the type you mention would be great. For some reason it's hard to put together a show of this type. I've been to Super Stock Reunions, Midwest HotRod Reunion, Supercar Showdowns etc. and for some reason they just don't seem wildy successful. I don't know why. Lack of advertising, getting the word to the right people? Anyway, I approached Frank Spittle once about doing a car show to accompany the SS Reunions. They had a lightweight show but that only brought in a handful of cars (I met Micky at Va. with a lightweight Pontiac). He then tried the "400 club" for muscle cars rated @ over 400 hp from the factory but it wasn't well publicized and not many cars showed up. I think it was hard for Frank to do the race and his plate was too full to do the shows. Its a shame, I miss these events but understand promoters must at least not lose money and should make a profit. Perhaps if enough groups could get involved it could be put together. The nostalgia super stock racers, this club and maybe some other clubs could coincide their annual conventions and a race date together to make this happen. Maybe just a case of someone starting the ball rolling and some communication. I also missed the York event and regret it, but I understand there are plans for a second one next year so I won't miss that. Greg

Getting back to the Camaro's at Carlise event for a minute. There were a good many neat cars at the show over the weekend. Two copo Camaro's (silver,and brown) two 69 Yenko's (Yellow and Rallye Green) a yellow ZL/1 and some very original survivor class cars including a 67Z,67SS396,68SS396 and a69SS396 car that were for the most part unrestored. The rainy weather danced around the event for the day part of the show , but we did get rain every night. What is the Reunion turnout looking like at this point? I got to meet some of the people that I have only talked to on the phone or computer in person as well. We will see you all soon!

Brian; The reunion turnout is coming along well, with about 20 for sures, plus several more very possibles, plus we always get several who show up Friday afternoon, unannounced. I think we will once again reach, or be close to, the 40 mark. And have several neat cars who will be in the Muscle Car Corral. As always, I have had several inquires about a 2001 reunion, from people whose cars will not be finished for this years event. I know of a couple of near finished Harrell cars that I would like to see next year. Can not wait to see your car again and watch it run. If we should happen to race, what kind of spot do we get?

Has the location for SuperCar Reunion 2001 been determined yet?
