Super Chevy Memphis
Hey guys, I'm planning on attending several Super Chevy shows this year (as a spectator and prospective buyer) and would like to go to some different ones that I haven't been to yet. Would be interested in any feedback about the quality and quantity of turnout of cars at past shows in the Memphis, Dallas and Bristol shows. If you have attended these I would appreciate your comments. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/flag.gif[/img]

Re: Super Chevy Memphis
L89
What model (showcars) had the biggest turnout? I heard Dallas has alot of 55-57's, but when I went to Houston there was not that many. Gainesville seemed to have alot of quality 69 Camaros and a few 55-57's and a good turn out of Novas. Just trying to get a feel as what to expect from different areas.

Re: Super Chevy Memphis
If you can, go to Indy! That is the best show. Usually 800 to a 1000 cars on display. Looks like there is going to be a big turn out this year, a lot of the hotels are already booked up for that weekend. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/flag.gif[/img]

Re: Super Chevy Memphis
We've been to Memphis SC a couple of times with our Yenko Camaro, and there wasn't really a whole lot to see...unless you were into late model Impalas or Camaros.
Now, the only time the Yenko goes to Memphis Motorsports Park is on Tuesday & Thursday nights...[img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/naughty.gif[/img]

Re: Super Chevy Memphis
Last year there was a 69 COPO Camaro (I think was a clone) and a nice Yenko Chevelle (all original). As always, more Z/28's than you can shake a stick at. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Re: Super Chevy Memphis
Any idea on the owners of those 2 cars? I remember seeing an orange COPO Camaro there one year, not sure if it was real, and the owner wasn't real talkitave. The racing there is usually decent, though.

Re: Super Chevy Memphis
I don't know the owner but I noticed that the car was in one of the SC mags. It list the owner in the article and when I looked at the results from all the shows, his car was winning in the gold class. In fact it looks like the guy towed the car all around the country last year. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif[/img]
